Last attempt was using the base \nstation, but the antennas aren't too good. I'll have to drag out the \nportable station sometime and see how I go. :)\n\n\n>Down here in VK0 I'm pretty sure I'm the first to get the footprint and\n>have noticed the same beahviour.

VK0 is the only VK call are I haven't worked via \nsatellite. :)\n\n\n>I guess the bottom line is to spend more time listening, have a little\n>patience, courtesy and respect for other hams. This needs to apply to the\n>\"guns\" as much as anybody else.\n\nIn the SO-35 days, I was a relative big gun, even with portable \ngear. I found it best to sit back, as well as occasionally help a \nnew station score a contact.\n\n\n>Whilst there has been a lot of discussion about how to reign in the rogues\n>surely the simplest solution is to ignore them?
