In the beginning when one got a transmit licence
the first consideration was to communicate with an other radio amateur and get a
report.
Now the procedure seems to be put a BEACON on air
and request a report via EMAIL, telephone or mobile phone.
Do not study or listen on the band as a SWL would
do but just plonk the beacon anywhere and churn out endless repetive bandslip
callsign and QTH info and cause the maximum QRM to those engaged in QSO mode.
You cannot ask the station to QSY because the Beacons are
unattended.
Appliance Operator assistants I presume.
