Carol,
I don't know anyone on the NJ QSO party staff, and have no dog in the fight,
but your nasty comments are WAY over the top.
I suspect it's a purely volunteer operation by some well meaning hams.
Maybe they bit off more than they can chew. Calling them "a fraud" is mean
spirited and thoughtless. Calling for a "boycott" is insulting to all of
us.
