Ah, but this would only be replaced by all those DL's reminding us that 
3650 - 3700 is not a contest area under the band plan.

What was peculiar last night was at 20:13 I was given a serial of 43 and by 
20:30 a couple of stns were at the 60 point - I'd be interested to know 
what their final score was. Yet, despite my lowly 49 Q's, all bar one on S 
& P, less than a half of the stns worked gave me a serial number higher 
than mine and that dropped to only 6 stns in the last hour. So it looks as 
if a few stns did well and everyone else suffered.  For that reason alone I 
would vote to keep the Jan/Feb contests so we learn more about how to deal 
with such condx.
