The thing that sets SS apart from other QSO-fests like CQWW is that the
exchange is not a predictable "fye nye foe" and that software cannot
auto-populate the log. It is a test of Radioman Skills (tm).
With that in mind, some of us have bad memories and cannot reliably be
counted on to send the same number as we sent you last year, thus
confounding those who depend on databases to avoid actually copying what we
actually send.

Joe,
I agree completely on the check issue. The rules are pretty plain on what
the check is. If it was any number you choose, the rules would say "The
check is any number you choose"
