[RTTY] ARRL 2nd Century Campaign reply

[Gary AL9A]

Right you are Mike, the W1AW/n operation is a stroke of genius by somebody. 
But try to imagine snagging a W1AW/n station on CW, RTTY or PSK should 
RM-11798 become the law of the land.  The folks running PACTOR IV, to have 
their cold beer and and other adult beverages waiting for them at the dock 
when they berth their yachts, would completely obliterate these band 
segments on multiple bands simultaneously!  Sort of takes the joy out of it!

73,
Gary AL9A

Not to bash the ARRL........

Everyone understands why we are having the 100 year ARRL celebration right?

Just think of all the new awards that people will be applying for and
all the LOTW credits.

I have had an absolute blast running W1AW/0.  Some of the best rate ever!

This is marketing genius.  Whoever thought of it should be congratulated!
