I apologize to everyone trying to come back to my call just now but we had a CLOWN on there constantly throwing a dead carrier and also whistling on top of everyone. Don't know if anyone else heard him/her but it was annoying and one reason why FM sats can be discouraging. Again I apologize to everyone trying to come back to my call.

Frank..... What is your Call??? ....GL/73, Bob K8BL P.S. Don't get discouraged. These situations usually clear up on their own when the newbies get more experience and the troublemakers get bored or ID'd.

....and, as history tells us time after time, acknowledging a lid on a board or reflector, simply gives them an incentive...just ignore and move on..

The same thing happens on FO-29. By looking at the footprints over many passes it appears that he is on the east coast somewhere near New York or Boston. If you have a SDR and look at the input, someone should be able to determine his location. It could be kind of long range fox hunt. Good luck finding him.
