Over the years there have been several good but sporadic attempts to improve ethical operating practices. So why should we care now? For one thing, most people think operating behavior has deteriorated even further. Second, when propagation improves, the pileups will be even worse. Third, those previous suggestions, however well intentioned, were as voices crying in the wilderness. Today we want to stimulate one giant CHEER, to get every HF DX operator in the world to say, “<i>WE CARE ABOUT HOW WE OPERATE!</i>” <br>
<br>Why certain hams engage in uncivil behavior patterns is a bit of a mystery. Most people want to be admired. Indeed most people want to be worthy of that admiration. On the other hand there is desire for accomplishment. That said, bullying through a pileup to make a contact is not an accomplishment that is worthy of admiration<br>
<br>The relative anonymity of the process doesn’t help. The hams who hear the poor operator are not his pals nearby who would criticize his behavior. They only include the station he is trying to contact and others who are one skip away from him. However, ethical operating means doing the right thing regardless of who is listening.<br>
<br><b>In an effort to restore gentlemanly behavior to the process an international group of hams is encouraging that we all aspire to a higher ethical standard by adhering to a DX Code of Conduct. We want to promulgate this Code to every national society and then down to every club and thence to every HF operator in the world. </b><br>
</span><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva,lucida,'lucida grande',arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">This is where you can play a role. <br>
<br><font size="4">Check out our website at:</font> <a href="http://www.dx-code.org/" style="color: rgb(34, 34, 156);" target="_blank">http://www.dx-code.org</a> <br><br>Tell others about it and e-mail your friends. Get your club to endorse the Code and to post a link to the Code website. You can post a link yourself from your own website or from your personal page at <a href="http://QRZ.COM" target="_blank">QRZ.COM</a>. Consider linking using our little mascot, Hiram. However you choose to do it, tell the world that you are a ham who cares!<br>
<br>Be proud of our hobby and the ethics of our operating practices. Be proud of your accomplishments but be respectful of others, especially those newer hams who do not yet have your skills and equipment. They deserve the same consideration you once received when you were younger. Everyone who has the ability to generate a signal the DX stations can hear should have the opportunity for a contact without being limited by impolite hams.<br>
<br>Our equipment allows us to be interconnected with people all over the world, but it has also made us more interdependent ethically upon one another. Let’s do everything we can to promote ethical operating practices and gentlemanly behavior amongst the DX fraternity so as to increase the enjoyment of all participants. <br>
<br><u>What we DO is a reflection of who we ARE.</u><br><br></span><div><br>-- <br>Best 73 from: regards from: CT4RK Carlos Mourato - Sines - Portugal<br><br> Save the Radio Spectrum!

Os "homeplugs power line" e a tecnologia "power line" causa fortes interferencias noutro serviços sem voce se aperceber. Diga não à tecnologia power line. Proteja o ambiente<br>
