  Hi Trent: 

  I disagree with this.  Eliminating the "multiplier" station, and having a 
  10-minute rule (along, of course, with a single transmitted signal) would 
  create a simpler category that would permit some operators and a radio to 
  have fun.  :-) 

  73, 

  Mark, KD4D

  The most sensible suggestion seems to be - 

  Do away with M/S as a category and have M2 or MM categories only.. 

  when the rules were formulted for the VK SHIRES contest M2 was the only 
  multi operator category due to the anomalies caused by M/S. 

  Perhaps the category (M/S) has been over taken by technology..
