IMO I wouldn't want to part from traditional rtty contest format and I don't
think this is what the hole thread is about; after all this discussion started
from a dash no dash argument that in my view is quite minor as opposed to many
inefficient macros I come across during contest, but we all need those points
and they're more than welcome in my book. I don't have a problem with dashes no
matter what. I would welcome the opportunity to try something new like HS rtty
and see how we like it. For the rest I wouldn't change a thing to the way we
have fun during the regular rtty contests. I love them all!!
