Ok, here is my take on the situation. My guess is=0D
that members (who pay somewhere around 40 =0D
bucks a year now I think) get a month's advance=0D
peek at the scores.=0D
=0D
Personally, I wouldn't mind if they let everyone look=0D
at the same time. No biggy to me. But, if the stations=0D
that are non-members get to look at the scores one=0D
month later, what is so bad about that? Maybe as=0D
an ARRL member, that is one of our "perks" for our=0D
membership dues?=0D
=0D
I just don't see the big deal about having to wait a=0D
month to see the scores. This is sure a lot faster=0D
then when we all had to wait for months to get our=0D
QST to see the scores. =0D
