Scott,
It is never ending story. In responce to these IDers the rule will be
modified saying that the speed of the IDer should not be more then 20WPM :)

I think I just found a new business--selling automatic Iders to contesters!
Remember the ones we constructed to connect to 2m rigs back when repeaters
were still not that common?
The CW version would send the ID out at, Oh, 50-60wpm so not to take up
time. The voice one, for the purists or if they pass a rule saying you
have to ID in voice for the SSB contests could also be speeded up. They
would be better than the DVRs now in use because they could track the
number of times the rig was keyed and ID according to the particular
contest.
The ardunio homebrew version could be published in NCJ and/or CQ. It
would have the side benefit of use for holding the freq just as the big
guns do now with DVR (which nobody has argued is unethical though we all
know it is done!).
If you think this is just a "rant", wait until they start to come out in
response to this rule

OR.. as a little pistol, and knowing full well that my point to him is
as valuable as it willbe.. I may elect to let him find me, later, when
he climbs down off his high horse and actually starts working people
instead of working calls. And when it gets to cq dupe.. maybe he can
find me.. and maybe not.. in either case,the Qs I make, not waiting for
him are worth a whole lot more than the time spent waiting.And some of
the others feel that they can always.. not matter what.. find all the
mults they need,that maybe true.. but I won't be able to find all the Qs
that I can make sitting around waiting for someoneto take all that
precious time to id...
Have a great day,

This is reasonable to me. As a really little pistol most of the time,
I'm
not going to get through on the first call if the guy has that big of a
pileup. If I'm going to spend a few minutes calling him to get a QSO, I
may
as well wait for him to ID and then start calling if he's not a dupe.
