Hi Alex,
I think you are taking things too seriously. W2EV is just trying to get all
of us to think without our usual blinders on. Yeah, some of it sounds crazy, but
it is all creative, or showing some thought. Anyway it is all interesting. I
never thought about instant logs! That would be a hoot you must admit. Imagine
getting all the times messed up and you are out on your butt! What if KR1ST
beat W2SZ/1 because of it?
