Radio Tech.....
I very much dislike radio contests, I believe it brings the ignorance out of ham's who for the most part are decent operators any other time they are on the air.
I have personally been told to.... "get off 10 meters, this is a contest not a rag chew session".....
I have witnessed on many contest weekends, operators maliciously interfering with long standing public service nets because they thought they should have priority over that particular net.....
I particularly dislike those ham operators who only turn on their HF radios for contests, these are the most ignorant of them all. This was originally a gentleman's hobby, as with anything in life you will always get a few bad apples, but the whole aspect of a contest tends to revel the selfishness, arrogance, and ignorance of many.....
Anti-contest opinions can be safely expressed here at WWRF, but do yourself a favor and keep them to yourself on the QRZ forums, you will get the same level of ignorance from all the contest jockeys over there....as in being called a whiner, and a net whacker who thinks he owns 14.300 Mhz......
Typical contester attitude....fuck everybody else, get out of my way and let me make a million 2 second contacts so I can get my name in QST magazine....
