We only have ourselves to blame for turning the RST into a synch pulse instead
of anything useful. I have been going over my old contest logs from the '60s
and '70s and find the RST reports were "honest" reports, not an endless column
of 599's.

W2AAA sends custom RS(T) reports when a contest requires RS(T). It's actually
kind of fun. Interestingly, very few ops seem to miss a beat by receiving an
unexpected report. Kudos to them.

PS: Now that I'm thinking about it, I can imagine having a little more fun by
giving the big gun's reports like "229" as a sort of "Revenge of the Little
Pistol's", knowing that it breaks nothing, except for the monotony between S&P
operations for us. <g>
