My default Cabrillo SOAPBOX comment is: "It takes THE mathematician to make
such a "standard" format".
As we know in math, if you can produce just a single proof of the opposite,
the whole thesis becomes invalid.
DX is NOT mentioned in the above recommended list of 80 choices so much
enjoyed by our VE/MAR/NWT friends.
Unfortunately, it has become a habit in USA to forget the rest of the
world...
When I state DX and mention a reputable contest club of which I happened to
be a President,
I would expect ARRL robot to accept that and ignore another irrelevant local
list.
Trey has done much better programming in his younger KKN days :-)
I hope ARRL robort would follow Darwin's HC8 evolution...
Merry Xmass and a happy New Year from Mario, S56A, N1YU
P.S. It would be nice to have "standard" Cabrillo header and not only QSO:
format!
