[UK-CONTEST] An ideal opportunity to drop PSK ... for good!

[cris at gm4fam.plus.com]

So would I - but instead use the much faster PSK63 - the only PSK63
contest I took part in last year was great fun, fast (faster than RTTY)
and hence a real challenge to keep 'on top of things'!

I vote to keep PSK.
