K3 in the CQWW contest

He obviously felt I was a bit close to his run frequency so He spotted
me with a comment.....

It's good that you called "QRL?....and that
may be "cool" to slip in close to somebody's "run" freq,
but the problem is that other stations calling him may not be
on the run stations freq....it's common to spread out a little.
So, in that regard, you could be causing QRM, especially
to weak signal DX calling him.  It's also quite common
for a run station to select a slightly "wide" filter so they don't miss
the off-freq signals.
