I agree. One thing is weekly casual operation, a hole different story in a real
contest. It may actually just be confusing and cause additional qrm. Let's
stick to the game plan.
BTW I have tried 75 baud operation with my friend Claude ve2fk lately and was
very impressed with speed and 100% copy. Look forward to try in weak sigs and
qrm/qrn situations.
