[CQ-Contest] Field Day Rules Change(s)

[Dale Putnam]

Great.. there goes another fun contest. Leave it to the Type A, gotta have it their way.. win above all costs, kinds.
you gotta love it... as we drive the stake deeper, and deeper... because.. we gotta win... and next year.. we all KNOW
there won't be as many hams playing... so gotta go now!!
 
you gotta admire that mindset.. 
why?
 
Beats me. But you gotta. 
 
The only thing that makes it a fun time for me.. is knowing not ALL the folks out there.. are of the same mindset. 
And thankfully... that attitude doesn't ruin cw, for me. 
 
See you in Field Day.. I'll be the one under the hat!... that smaller signal.

Have a great day,
