Hi Contesters,

Until a couple of days ago I did not know that DX stations have
to send "OUTPUT" power in ARRL DX not "INPUT" as it used to be
for many, many years. I guess I should look into the rules from
time to time. I wonder why *THAT* was changed...

To clear all misunderstanding: the power limit in this country 
is 750 watts output, so when I sent "5NN KW" I rather did this
as an old habit. It's shorter and easier to copy, too.
