[SECC] US qso's

[Rick Dougherty NQ4I]

Hi All..I am going to disagree with some of you..we had over 500 zero point
qso's in the log..at our average hourly rate of 160 per hour that is 3 +
hours that for all intensive purposes are wasted.....who knows how many qrp
and low power guys were calling and got frustrated and moved on because we
had to work the loud W"s...just my 0.02 worth from here..do I think they
will change the rules..never...but it gets me that most of these zero
pointers think they are helping out! Duh!
