Well, since it is a public forum I have to side with Larry on this. I am a
contester and enjoy mostly top band operating but I would have to agree that
too much of a good thing gets old quick. It used to be that you looked
forward to the SP, but warm-ups, pre-warmups etc. seem to carry the theme
too far.

Fortunately participation is not mandatory for those who have had enough.
Ah, but that's exactly my point. Those with a limited or no interest in this
event DO have to "participate" in it by virtue of the additional weekend of
chaos that it causes.

Given the winter stew was a thunderstorm extravaganza for most of the
midwest, another shot at it prior to spring would be attractive for many.
April may be a bit late to have good low noise conditions.

I tend to agree Larry - even more Stew is not necessarily a good thing.
