Well maybe for you and the majority of the world but this year
the CQ WW SSB contest will finally be 48 hours for those of
us that live in the DST disadvantaged world. I bet with that
extra hour I will finally be able to post a decent score.
But, won't this change in these contests screw up the
records. Sure, CQ WW SSB will be an hour longer but SS code
will be an hour shorter. Seems like folks like you that do not
have DST will have a big advantage now in SS code.
I don't like it.... something needs to be done.
