Hi guys,
à tend to agree with Phil's point of vue. This is by the way not the first
contest in which this particulear station was asking to put him on the cluster.
I didn't take the time to tell him that it would be better to get that off his
macro. What I think is that probably he simply DOESN'T KNOW IT SHOULDN'T BE
DONE...he takes this as a pile up situation more than a contest. I honestly
don't even remember his call but if you do maybe just send him an e-mail to
inform him, I'am sure he will comply.
I tend to beware more of hidden situations than out in the open ones but in the
end each one knows what he has done right or wrong. Not much glory into hanging
that nice certificate on the wall of the shack when you know you had to cheat
to get it...
73,
