Dealing with Abusive Stations
Amateur Radio is a reflection of society. You may experience inappropriate behaviour such as jamming or even outright abuse from other stations. Such behaviour is very rare, but not unknown.
In all cases, ignore the jamming or abusive station.
This is often not easy to do, however it is the best strategy for defusing the situation. Never, ever “bite”, as this just gives the abuser what he/she craves – attention.
