Re: [VHFcontesting] Sports vs. Radiosports

Phew!

If you're concerned about how folks use a word, just don't use it and 
just say what you want to say, even if that takes a few more words. As 
you can see, quotation marks do not make things any clearer. Besides, 
Ev, quotation marks are used to indicate the alternative meaning of a 
word, not the literal meaning. Now that's bickering! Complain about that! :)

Ok, so I understand that you want to make it mandatory to submit 
electronic logs in order to make the results available as quickly as 
possible, and you're willing to exclude people who have to rely on 
technology that is so "5-minutes ago". Heck, half the technology we use 
in hamradio is at least from "15 minutes ago".

I don't understand why you insist on being so exclusive to the rest of 
world who may not have the same privies as we enjoy. I guess I was 
hoping you would put a bit more thought into how you could include folks 
who can only submit paper logs. Even at half the average age of the ham 
population in the US, I guess I'm part of the old breed.

Besides, you don't have to wait until the rules change to to take 
advantage of electronic logging.....simply submit the scores to the 3830 
list and you'll get a pretty good idea of what's going on.
