> 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.
