SOME of us give out more-or-less honest signal reports. Even in contests. <g> Why bother with an S meter? In every contest that I've worked every one receives and gives a 599 report followed by "uh,

Rick, Thank you for that explanation. Although I work in IT, I don't do any programming of contest related software, so I hadn't heard of Omni-Rig before. And I'm sure many other contesters haven't e
