Well I was not one of those members who specifically expressed an
interest to reintroduce /A, but I fully agree with the change. The
specific case which comes to mind was when I was visiting GW4ALG
quite a few years ago when NFD was on and I was tempted to go on and
make a few QSOs from his shack. The option to use /A was not there,
so I went on as GW3YMC/P and created quite a lot of interest. Pity
under the NFD rules everybody I worked claimed the /P bonus points
blissfully unaware I was nice and warm and all mains powered.
So yes, it is a reasonable change, and I am surprised by the outrage
shown by some on here.
