I do have one scheduled net I participate in. A few nights ago we must of had half a dozen folks "Calling Through" during our pre-net conference.

We simply ask them if they wish to join the net. Heck, some do.

The ones I complain about are when we are sitting there in pre-net and have been for a while and they fire up, oh say 1KC away (I know where they are at because I"ve got a PSK waterfall display running and it spots signals real well) and when one of our net members qsy's the KC and listens they are complaining about US.. I mean, one of the rules of Ham radio is 1st come 1st serve in most cases. And this is one of those cases
