I third that comment.  Inter-UK working would ruin BERU.  Imagine trying to 
work ZLs on 80 metres (maybe not a big deal for those with big amps but 
always a thrill for a little pistol like me) with the band wall to wall with 
signals like AFS.  Yuck!  Not that I don't like AFS, but everything has a 
time and a place.

I'm sorry that SJJ needs big runs to enjoy a contest.  Yes, BERU is 
different - so what?  Personally, I think the problem with too many contests 
are that they're too alike.  Diversity is a good thing.  Long live BERU.
