a  contest!  If you're not using contest logging software,
you're not  really "in" the contest.

And if you are using contest logging software,  and change
the sent or received reports from the 59(9) defaults,
you're  not really "in" the contest.

It's a contest!  No one cares about  their report, otherwise
they're not really "in" the contest.

It's a  contest!  Why do contest organisers insist on 
redundant  "reports"?  They say they cross-check them,
and that's even more  reason not to send anything other
than 59(9).  And if everyone sends  59(9) there's nothing
to check.  And if there's nothing to check, why  insist
on it being sent?

Can't beat a good circular argument  :-)

And there was me think part of the contest is to exchange meaningful  
information. Thank heavens I dont like HF
