[RTTY] Contest Ethics

Fabi,

I changed my mind on this question a few years ago. For many years I would 
take part in the tests and only use my log for checking. Recently, partly 
due to the lack of competitive G stations in the tests, I started to include 
my scores in the results (in italics) just to get another G or Euro station 
up there! My 'position' in the results does not affect anyone else; even if 
I 'won' a class the next station would be classified as the winner and get 
the trophy.

Cheers,

John GW4SKA
