[UK-CONTEST] Fw: Re Skimmer - was QTC in WAEDC RTTY

[Roger G3SXW]

You are both right! Dive in Peter, have fun with it! But Skimmer makes you 
Assisted - some would say 'Multi-Op' even.
Maybe contest sponsors need a re-think of single-op categories: 'Assisted' 
becomes 'Technology', anything goes. Contests which allow only pure 
single-op are doomed, eventually. It's often new technology which attracts 
newcomers.
73 de Roger/G3SXW.
