Could the said person be a WSPR PIRATE ?
Well, my NoV is actually for A1A Telegraphy, and I've never radiated
anything other than that mode. I have NEVER transmitted WSPR on 500kHz,
so I guess I couldn't be considered a WSPR PIRATE. You must be thinking
of someone else?
This doesn't mean I'm not happy to help others in their studies of
alternative modes.
Anyone who decries "beacon modes" and "appliance operation" - and who
claims to only use "QSO mode" - really should restrict themselves to
hand sent CW using real "proper" CW, don't you think?
Once such a person has been seen and heard to use an "appliance" to
generate their CW and QRSS signals (we've ALL heard the interminable CQ
calls... obviously not hand generated, and sent with no intention to
listen for replies), in the hope of being received on a distant grabber,
with no hope of a 2-way QSO, then I believe they forfeit any moral
authority to lecture the rest of us as to how we should conduct our
experimental activities.
