[CQ-Contest] 2003 CQ 160 Change Coming

[Tom Rauch]

Having to operate Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday night 
here sure doesn't work well either! This is all fine for a single op 
entry or retired people, but think of the people who would be 
required to sit around all day twiddling their thumbs two days in a 
row, just to operate a few hours of prime time on Sunday evening.

It all depends if you are home or not. I can't understand why any 
change is needed, especially making this into a three evening, no 
daytime contest.

Surely we can do something more reasonable than the 
suggestions so far.
