Mike:
Rule 6. Seems pretty plain to me. Packet is not allowed for single op, and
discouraged for Multi op. Local skimmers appear to be ok, but grudgingly.
SP appears to be an attempt to hold on to “Boy and his Radio” (copyright K0HB)
contesting. Kinda like Stew did himself, as I read the history.
Fine by me.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Stew Contest and Multi Op/packet
The Stew Perry contest is not an ARRL event, so entering in Multi Op does
not mean "Single Op + Packet"
I was surprised at a few mini packet pileups I had last night. Now I know
why.
After reviewing the DX Cluster today and reading 3830 it's apparent nobody
reads rules anymore.
In all fairness, there were a couple guys using skimmer/telnet/cluster
submitting properly as checklogs as they were chasing new countries or
whatever.
I would suggest to the Boring Club to clarify this point in the multi op
rules. (ie: Multi Op does not mean Single Op + Packet).
