[UK-CONTEST] July Radcom - BERU / Old Gits

[Adrian Rees (MW1LCR)]

Snip: QUERY (actually two):- How old does one need to be to qualify as an 
Old Git? How many more summers can I look forward to enjoying (54 
currently) before this old fashioned, quaint but IMHO abusive, negative 
and ignorant terminology is applied to me?

Depends upon the age of the Young Git making references.

One opinion + One query
OPINION: - I enjoy the 12 hour section and would hate to see it 
discarded; and in terms of judging 'On' and 'Off' times it is, in its 
own way, just as challenging as the full 24 hour entry.  With my 
particular set-up (no HF beam right now but reasonably competitive LF 
antennas) 12 hours strikes just the right balance - if the 12 hour 
category was discarded I would not bother entering BERU.

Old Git? How many more summers can I look forward to enjoying (54 
currently) before this old fashioned, quaint but IMHO abusive, negative
