Jim;
I have always viewed the 5NN in the exchange as a marker to seperate the call
from the usefull exchange data.
You are right in that it does not convey any useful information but my guess is
that , by omitting it, you are going
to cause more confusion than it is worth. But I applaud your effort to try.
73,
Al, K0AD

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Contest exchange
I got in the Wisconsin QSO Party a week ago last Sunday for my usual brief
oray, CW only, 3.5 hours, 350 QSOs. Great fun! Lots of OF friends called in.
The geniuses who run the WIQP -- none of them serious contesters -- specify the
xchange as just location, no signal report. That really speeds things up.
So I have made a Command Decision here at the Battleship Wisconsin. I will no
onger send a signal report in any contest; I will send only whatever the other
lement of the exchange is, the one that matters. You have been warned.
