In a personal email Dave G3TBK asked me to input the following onto the 
reflector.   Dave will be rejoining when he gets his lap-top sorted out.

> I have looked back in my 21/28 Contest logs to the 1970s when one year 
> I worked 800+ and was not even in the top five! (Spent too long 
> running JAs instead of chasing mults)  The DX stations really did 
> support us back then, and far more UK stations were active. I 
> personally feel with great regret that there is such apathy to DX 
> contesting in the UK that no matter what changes are made to the rules 
> there will not be enough UK activity to get DX stations to support us. 
> I am inclined to think we should run a Contest on 21/28 simultaneously 
> with CQWW and with the same exchanges, then at least there would be 
> plenty of folk to work.
