I ignore them, 80 meters isn't a special band, I follow the same protocol I do on the other bands. If someone is upset that oatmeal now comes in flavors, shame on them.
Had someone lambaste me for asking if the frequency was in use. "The frequency is ALWAYS in use". My reply was nice and used logic, "I listened for 2 minutes, heard nothing, and asked if it was in use. Would you rather me simply start calling CQ?". He changed his tune.
It's just radio. There are more good operators than bad. I just ignore the LIDS. |
