1. All flames to me.
2. The only score(s) I want to beat are my own scores!
3. I do SO1R; I currently do not have the space for proper antennas, SO
WHAT! I enjoy all of the contacts I make. Actually, a very small amount
compared to the big guns.
4. This is not a NANNY state, yet.
5. I get the contest results and I mostly read the soapbox reports from
the different contesters. This is one way of getting to know the other
operators better.
6. Categories, if we try we could probably come up with maybe 40 or
more categories.
7. One personnel question: Are there any operators willing (or crazy
enough) to try SO3R or SO4R? IF YES, PLEASE get a web cam going because I
would love to see someone try SO3R and SO4R.
CU ARRL 10m, I know we are at the bottom of the cycle.

What a crock! It simply shows that you failed to plan properly
or to recycle the old quote "those who fail to plan, plan to fail."
It is, as it always has been, SINGLE OPERATOR not SINGLE RADIO
category and this constant yammering BS about SO1R vs. SO2R is
nothing but crap from those who "are not willing to be all they
can be."
Life ain't fair and there is no level playing field so get over
it.
