Back when computerized logging was just emerging, Gene, W3ZZ, I and a few 
others were discussing it and the notion of computerized contesting. At one 
point Gene made the sage comment that a computerized contest station would be a 
lid and Vic, W4KFC, would beat it anyway.

While Vic is gone I’m firmly convinced the same is true today.

This is not new stuff, SV5KDL and others have been leading the pack in 
automated FT8, now FT4 contesting and DXing.

you can enter any category you like and wonder if the guy that beat you was 
hooked up to a local skimmer, running high power with the new OM power amp 
combiner (hook up 2 X OM-4000), or out at dinner while the contest was on! 73,
