WARNING MAN Y ERROR5 CONT41N3D IN TH35E SUBTITIES!!!
oh it's a no-rules pileup! .. I didn't realize by the way - somebody
said take off the material covers on your Pro 7s and they'll be a lot more
comfortable yes they are a lot more comfortable my ear still don't fit
inside these gel things so but I will give it another go
you never know I could change my mind yet unlikely because I still I still
find them pretty heavy right then so get a few questions on the post live stream
and actually during my live streaming I get some questions or rather events
occur and make me think I need to talk about this so I'm gonna talk about it
that's that um can you see me all right there yeah so there's a few fundamental
errors and the operators make by the way I make mistakes I'm what I'm talking
about is systematic mistakes over and over again it's that is that doing that
it's not so much a mistake it's more of a habit that we need to break now
there's such a thing called a DX code of conduct
I wasn't typing hence I'm a fast typist but I need to look at the cable still
after 30 years it comes first hit the X code of contacts con con dogs now in the
main where is this the full code is available here in the main this is all
to do with the DX cluster and most people know what a cluster is this DX
summit will actually go to DX summit dot F I I don't know where that widows deed
but the spotter in this case let's take this one here VA to GU on frequency 3
503 which is on CW has spotted Oh whiskey 3 Lehman properly was also
spotted four Zulu 4 kilo x-ray okay now night only Tuesday night
what's whiskey three Lima Papa Lima to an onboard the DX cluster it's a bunch
of machines around the world how I go into the technicals of it because
actually I don't fully understand it it's a bit like the World Wide Web
there's some bunch of machines networked together so you can send a cluster spot
and it'll stall them all up and spew it back out again so people like you and I
can see the cluster in real time and things like n1 mm that the contest
logger I use but I use it for DX and reads the Custer and populates the band
map with the cluster it's just a bit of fun I don't really use the cluster it I
just see oh that's interesting what's going on you know things like that so
this is a real-time Custer this happens to be DX summit but there's lots but
because of the cluster a lot of people start to rely on the cluster to go about
she's young seems to be spitting it to go about their business so what they'll
do is they'll come home from work put on the radio watch the cluster yes honestly
they do this go oh look PP 1ww is is on 14 - on 8 don't ever
look they see they don't have a look and they they they can hardly hear it but
they hear the 1ww so Mike Sarah Mike Charlie AK sorry now
it just so happened because they weren't listening they don't know that he's only
calling Pacific or his beaming whoops using about he's beaming north or
outside of Europe or whatever else or the fact he's halfway through a call Wiz
with kit with with whisky freely map happily
just said he's cool I don't know but the point is we don't listen we don't
understand so we use the cluster class there's a bit of a guide if you like I
rarely go on the bloody thing rarely I only use it because it makes my band lap
Matt look pretty and I also make sure I'm not on the same frequency frankly as
another heavyweight DX station to keep I'm on 40 meters and the skip starting
to change anyway so some few bright guys got a well pissed off if you like with
the style of operation and came up must have been about 10 years ago when the
code of conduct was produced and I was just gonna well he says it number one
here I will listen and listen and listen again blah blah a lot is if we don't
listen if we don't physically we can't hear the DX station as pointless
screaming you're bloody cool side there on the microphone unless you can hear
him properly and you can gauge exactly when he started attending the last qso
the fact that every now and again he says up five which means he's
transmitting on this frequency he's listening up five or maybe six five
six seven four five six sometimes they'll say up five to ten that's
another that's another world basically you just need to make sure you're
transmitting five up from and listen down below it allows the reason for that
by the way is it allows you to always hear the DX operator and so because the
transmit frequency is that we're all of mush is where you're transmitting but
everybody can hear patiently hopefully the DX operator that's one way of
getting of calming a pile up down is to go five up because the idea B is that D
DX operators actually got clear transmitted frequency hasn't got all
sorts of idiots shouting over the top of them the idea is they're all shouting
five up anyway supposed to listen and then you'll only call if you can
actually copy the DX station yourself how many times have you heard a guy put
all the amplifiers on he's got all knots to the right and then he's hollered into
some DX station he can't actually make out the guy giving him five and nine so
and that happens to me doesn't it well we'll come to that the minute and so M 0
MC exportable okay but somebody what we'll do they'll
put me on a cluster is M 0 MC X or MMR 0 sometimes I like dither when I say
Michael um M 0 MC X let's say I think it's mm 0 I'm in Scotland and they'll
put me on a cluster as mm 0 or they'll leave out the stroke P so technically
you'll end up with a contact with someone with the wrong call sign okay
say don't trust the cluster ever always listen use it as a guide if you're gonna
use it at all plenty of time I've I forget to use the
cluster late in the afternoon on 40 meters from Europe Indonesia started
creeping in on 7 160 or 7 165 I'm often around there on time and Karachi this
call came out as the Sun was moving over into the dark you know and I thought oh
I'll give him a go at about 400 watts and my vertical in the garden and I
finally got through nice calm quiet frequency so for a laugh at any carry on
calling CQ nobody nobody we get given these lovely twiddly knobs hot radios
nobody's using a bloody things so I thought I'll stick him on the cluster so
I went to DX summit whatever is put in this Indonesian go I put in my the the
frequency hit return let's say took four to five seconds for an instant pileup in
Indonesia and proved something to me mmm I do don't trust the cluster because I
thought got that call wrong either walk gone wrong wouldn't it oh don't
interfere with the DX station the other thing is if he's going up five you'll
end up with the band police okay now it's a special breed of person
becomes a band piece and what they'll do is they'll listen on the transmit
frequency for people who don't realize these listening up five now if you're
new to this game you don't know what up five means do you so you get the you
know helmets from disel Dorf up five up five up fire they'll be shouting at the
pool it will them three section m7 now is the new foundation noises in the UK
be polite be a nice guy it can't be that hard alright and the
other thing and this annoys bees it says here wait for the DX station to
end before calling so I made a video about this deny with them when
especially event stations I don't know if I put this one in but I've heard when
I was about so I'm the DX now right and and I'm speaking to John give him a
quick over John comes back it says cheerio and before I say cheerio John QR
said I get a real clever clogs golf one alpha Bravo Charlie and I think now he
was really clear very strong looks like he just wants me in the log and he'll be
off so I've got a choice o g1 ABC 859 thang Scout 59 here in Bedford have a
great day and you sounded super Brian the pile up very well bye bye problem
with doing that is the rest of the crew go oh it's a no-rules pileup I didn't
realize so I penalize him and I hold him back even though he might be the loudest
I'll hold him back two or three contacts before I finally get to him to show that
I absolutely mean business I'm running this pileup and that no one can can
break the break the toy and then also when I was m3 MCX
I would hear these Italians sorry mr. Italy I'm sorry to pick you out but you
know you are maybe it's the same in every country but
more often not there is a culture but taking in Italy to give a partial
callsign either like the last two letters golf uniform or something
Charlie x-ray in my case well actually require actually isn't it
oh is that a Uruguayan station calling me no it's Mike zero Mike Charlie
actually that's me bloom and call so I'll get the whole thing I have known of
Americans ever doing that but there's a European culture given partial partial
call signs the thinking being is I can just get Gough uniform maybe you'll hear
it go Oh who's the golf uniform no the trick on that one is QR said this is a
DX station I go in my head ago m0 MCX then I go m0 MCX knowing that I've just
started the beginning of my call when everybody else is ending theirs
why did you whatever if he's strong and you persevere you normally get through
anyway so all senator and I'll always call and then listen for a reasonable
interview interview interval I will not call continuously
now I haven't heard this but apparently there's people out there hang on a
minute there's people out there with that will call like over an arc she
don't have heard it I have heard it I've heard of Italy Sulu whatever do one ABC
again the guys go again QR said or who's the echo alpha station do one ABC you
know every matter what he says oh yes station and we're there to go ahead do
one ABC no pits off so yeah I've just heard this endless drivel like he's got
to get through ABC ABC do one do one do on ABC shut have I had it with me no but
I've heard it and it just makes the whole hobby sounds so disrespectful is
that what across that to us our wonder so he's calling who's
the echo alpha I'm not echo alpha you could say a would
be a careful house m0 echo alpha x-ray but I'm not a my segment number nine
that's actually what I've been waffling about in fairness and then that number
thirteen or did go to yourself DX - code.org you never read of it and I'll
get to the last one here but you can even download your own certificate a
your that and put it on your wall the X code of conduct but you need to think
yourself until I warrant a certificate I don't want a certificate for my wall but
am i if someone else had listened to me would they say yeah we'll give him a
certificate did you not I mean because number thirteen I will respect
my fellow hams and could duck myself so as to earn their respect basically I
like to think I'm an ambassador and even from day one in this hobby I realized I
was an ambassador for the hobby and I don't know whose listing but I've had
emails over the years out the blue of people that have listened to me and
emailed me little polite messages I heard you today sound great or a nice
guy or whatever I'm not a nice guy all the time okay but you know some of the
time in my public persona I have to be I'm not wife beater or anything like
that but I've had to sack you know it's hard life isn't it but anyway that's all
for now I will review these Hiles may be the weekend will go down will live
stream and I'll ditch the boom will boot to the heart or door to Aston and we'll
see if there are any more comfy - okay see you later - bye for now!
