[CQ-Contest] Cut Numbers

Speaking of speed demons.

I'd just love to see one of the logging program developers, have their 
program automatically change the sending speed to match what it is 
hearing as the receiving speed.

Not bother to do the actual decoding. just monitor the speed being heard 
and automatically adjust the transmit speed to match it.

So when you come along to one of those 50 wpm speed demons the program 
automatically responds to them going 50 wpm.

They can't bitch about it. the replies are coming back at the speed they 
are sending right?  Isn't it common Amateur to send only as fast as you 
can copy?
