Just tried a FO-29 pass for the first time in months. I don't get down here to operate at my main station much anymore. I put myself right around 435.850, a clear freq and proceeded to try and make a few contacts. Well, after one contact all of a sudden there were 3 or 4 stations calling CQ on 850, right on top of the station I was trying to work. I don't get it, there is plenty of bandwidth why do people call right in the middle of someone trying to make a contact. I gave up, unbelievable...
