several years ago i was still into self spotting,
I had no idea it was looked down on if you were using packet and were
getting assistance I thought hey packet (dx spots) is dx spots
after one contest I got a couple of very polite emails and I decided they
were right and I was in the wrong
if my old memory recalls this was about 5 years ago
People are learning from threads such as this
discussion IS good if the audience listens
for those that don't listen peer pressure is the best course
I would like to add K1TTT does so much for our community as contesters and
Ham radio over all and I say thank You !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
