[CQ-Contest] When it's over, it's over (again)

[W0MU Mike Fatchett]

It could be done today.   Not entirely different than real time scoring 
on steroids.  To stop any Tom foolery the contacts to be uploaded would 
be encrypted.  Once you hit enter that qso is locked in...Done no 
corrections.

Start on a Sprint or a CWT or similar 4 hour event or maybe even a one 
hour event.
