	Couldn't resist it .... 

	We've just operated in the 50MHz Trophy and three bands in VHF NFD
with both PC-logging and "Pen & Paper" logging.  Our operators on the
mic/key wrote up the paper log, and a seperate "Logger" sat in front
of a laptop with external screen & keyboard.  Our guys seemed happy
with this method, and it helped clear up some errors prior to sending
in the 50MHz Trophy entry.  

	Only other problem we had was when we turned our "clean" 4m yagi
away from the Essex direction, and when we turned it back, G0VHF/p
had nicked "our" frequency !  Serves you right.....
 (All tongue-in-cheek of course.)

 I blame computer logging and slow typing. The qualification for
being a
 radio amateur should include touch typing at 25wpm!
