Timo, do U really call 4 QSOs / hour "busy" ??  :-)  I don't think  
what you call "Sunday boredom" is at any time less productive than 4  
QSOs / hour...

Mikey and KQ2R is right on this one.

73, Zoli HA1AG

Ps: I still fail to understand what is the real goal of this change  
other than solving the "Single transmitter" controversy and I wonder  
how many of the decisionmakers operated M/S lately. I mean serious M/S  
and not the "beer-and-grill-party-from-a-friend" M/S...
