I'm really surprised at the response to this. I don't think that's what
Rick meant by his post.
In my note to rick, part of which he quoted, I offered a few reasons why
I thought the cqcontest.net site (formerly cqcontest.ru) had not yet
found wide acceptance among US hams, mostly with their roots in the site
and its administration. This is nothing new, though. I've been
advocating on-line scoreboards for 7 or 8 years now, and have watched
two previous efforts founder because their owners couldn't (or anyway
didn't) support them. I'm hoping now that the Russian proprietors will
stick with it, improve their ghastly user interface, and continue to
offer this service while we get over our reticence.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Posting Scores
I cannot believe what I have been seeing and hearing this RDXC!! Hundreds
of stateside signals and not hardly a one posting a score...I feel very
strongly that if you USE the technology to have packet, or skimmer
assistance, then you should post your score! The UA hams have done a really
wonderful job in their website..it keeps getting better and better...
My hat is off to the following: W8CAR, AA3B, K3IT, W3LL, W6AWW, N3MX, K3ZU,
N3BNA, and W1KM for posting their scores for all to see! What a go
gentlemen!
So, How about it guys....post, or don't use packet and skimmer!
