Sean, KC1OT, activating K-9894 in CT. He is soon interrupted with QRM from WB3ATF. I would hope it wasn't intentional, but when I look him up on QRZ I find the following at the top of his bio.

"There is a Facebook page "AMPS On The Air" (AOTA) that is now active. The purpose of this page is to promote the use of linear amplifiers. Please go to this Facebook page and post a picture of your amplifier in use as well as your call sign to become "activated." In addition, you can become "activated" by calling us directly over the air on 14.313 MHz. Good Luck!

Please check out the Facebook page 14.313 MHz."

Seems a bit suspicious that he would choose to start calling 2KHz about his 14.313 Amps On The Air frequency...

I happened to be sitting on 14.313 working at the computer when KC1OT came on and asked not once, but three times if the frequency was in use. I was the first to work him and when we finished several patient operators came back. I find it hard difficult to think WB3ATF could'nt hear any of them. I couldn't tell that ATF asked if the frequency was in use as he was up in frequency.
