I thought my open letter was more diplomatic...
I debate if it can be resolved in the confines of the ARRl and other contests
are needed so they have some competition.
and to k3lfo 's post, I would have to build 10 stations get 10 people no
codelicences and cordinate all the qsos to compete. Thats a pretty big step
from whe I am at now. How about you?
a log turned in as parially check logging is cherrie picking. I could of
dumped 10 qsos and entered as a limited and won after realizing the microwave
bands were almost dead.
I suppose if you had a registering system where you declared what you are going
out as before the contest, then a check log would not facilitate QSO cherrie
picking, which some believe is unethical.
