Re: [RTTY] SPRINT

[Jerry Flanders <jeflanders@comcast.net>]

Reminds me of "Musical Chairs" game.  I worked 3-4 Q's in this contest a 
couple years ago before I discovered I had to move after every CQ'ed contact.

Some guys probably love that rule, but it was too much chaos for me. If I 
have to work that hard to have fun I will just skip it.
