Type in YOUR call in the station worked column, fill in the correct exchange
and press enter.  Then go ahead and dupe yourself every few minutes.  For a
thrill,  you can occaasionally work yourself eight or nine times per minute
and then check the rate meter.  YEE HA  I'm smokin'!  The robot won't care -
No NIL, because it's your log and you've proven that you were awake and
operating.  If you're hand logging there won't be quite the same thrill and
you may get writer's cramp but who ever said contesting was easy?
Next thread, please.
