[Mldxcc] "The Other Side Of Contesting" - by Ron, K6KYJ

[Rick Tavan N6XI]

Great story! Thanks, John, for forwarding it and thanks, Ron, for writing
it. Ron suggests that such a story would never appear in the Jug - I don't
know why not. It's an excellent description of what contesting is all about,
at any level. It's a message of inclusiveness and encouragement that should
be a lesson to beginners, intermediates and Big Guns. I hope everyone reads
it. Attaboy, Ron!
