I thought the contest was fun.  There were people to work each time I tuned
across the band.  Probably would have missed the event if there wasn't an
announcement here on the reflector.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion about an event.  And everyone has the
option to submit a log or not.  But, perhaps those opinions should be shared
with the organizer or the mobile and not in a negative way on the
reflector...  

We need more positivity about why contesting is fun and less about why you
aren't having fun.

Randy, K5ZD
