[CQ-Contest] Regarding Check Numbers...

[John Geiger]

Actually, a check of 00 would be nice, as I could then
just send TT.

Glad the ARRL has said that they don't care what check
you send as long as it stays consistent.

We should all choose the same check one year, though,
to show them the folly of putting a rule in which they
state they have no intention of enforcing, and don't
even care if you don't follow it.
