[CQ-Contest] Fw: Re: 59(9) all the time!

[k7qq at netzero.com]

I don't think that the ARRL can be consider at fault for  59/9 reports  I rembember using these type of reports because it was a big bother with the paper logs to enter each RS/T individually so I would enter 59 at the  top of the column and draw a line from top to bottom.  I doubt this was necessary but that is the way I did it with the CQ 40 contacts per page or   ARRL 50 per page.

This old fellow   W5FG in all probability hasn't been very active in contesting for a while.  

Quack    77 and counting

Amazing.  Intelligent ham operators repeating the mindless, useless
59/599 over and over and ...

I'll run the race and I will never be the same again.

     The FCC denies W5FG's petition to sanction the ARRL for promoting
the
use of a "sham reporting system" based on "wholesale liar's exchanges"
in amateur radio contests:
