This, in my mind, is *PRECISELY* why SS *should* be checked very
strenuously. SS has it's roots in traffic handling, and the emphasis
of the contest has always been a "copying" contest. Rather than "59KW
<supercheck partial>", this contest stresses good ears and penalizes
"fast and dirty" operating.

Naw, it's going to force the "Top 10 stations" to take special care to
"get it right" or they won't be "Top 10".
Your mileage may vary.
