   Ah,now I get it, sort of like trying to identify your stenciled name on the over stretched elastic waist band on a worn pair of Navy issue skivvies from the ship's laundry.

Lets say you have a group of friends that meet for drinks every Friday night. There are 10 pubs in town and you never know which one may have some seats available. So, you tell your friends that they'll just have to search up and down the street until they find you. Wouldn't it be better if you could have a reserved location so that they know where to find you?

sure, but if your normal table was taken, would you look for the nearest available open table -- or would you inform the guys already sitting there that it is your table and they need to move out of it?   The degree of diplomacy with which you approach the second option will be directly proportional to how smoothly things proceed.

But what would you tell a new licensee about how to respond to the situation?

According to the rules, the 3 Stooges have the frequency.  But, since we are supposed to be intelligent, reasonable adults, it is easier for us to move then to fight with the NET.

It's kinda like explaining to the trooper at the accident scene, "I saw him coming, but I had the "Right of way"!".

  It's a "tit for tat" Situation it always has been.

I have always thought that nets gathered a bunch of folks on one freq and left more room for the rest of us on the band.
