[VHFcontesting] Poll

[Bob Naumann - W5OV]

Rusty,

I don't think you can draw any conclusion on based that small a sample.

I also think there was something wrong with your original email which 
was blank with only the subject referencing a poll.

I suspect you got few responses as a result.

73,
Bob W5OV

> Hey Bob, I only got 6 responses total.  Much less than I would have 
expected considering the topic.  Not that I wanted to sort through 
thousands of emails, but I would have figured it would have been a 
little more even given previous discussions on this list.  I suspected 
there was a majority that considered the tactics unethical (per 
previous posts), but as far as the answers I got back, it was not the 
case.  It was very surprising to say the least.  It is not a big deal 
to me personally, because I am not a rover and don't plan on being 
one.  I had no idea that what was happening with these tactics was the 
status quo versus the exception to the rule.  I can't say that I will 
ever look upon VHF contesting quite the same.  73...Rusty NE4ME
