[UK-CONTEST] BERU

[G3SXW]

I agree, Stewart. It's interesting that several reported to this reflector 
that it was their first BERU and that they will be back next year. Good 
news! Leave it alone. It ain't broke.
By the way, I've noticed that rule-changes are always specifically designed 
to benefit the proposer!
