[UK-CONTEST] VHF NFD Contest Exchange

Hi all

I noticed a disturbing new trend in contest exchanges during the weekend. It
seemed that almost every other station we worked would proceed, when it was
their turn, to repeat every detail we had sent them, before sending the
information we needed.

We really don't need confirmation that the other guy got it all. If there
was any doubt, he/she can ask for a repeat. But to repeat everything we
sent, parrot fashion, is surely a waste of time.

I wonder if it was a cunning idea by all the other clubs, who got together
and said "lets make a long-winded qso with G0VHF/P so that they don't win
again"

If that was the plan, it might just have worked! Time will tell - it could
be close again.
