Hear, hear, Ed, N1UR. Exactly. The only rules for anyone who wants to contest are the rules of the FCC or other governmental authorities of their countries. Have fun in contests doing anything you want under those rules. Only if you want to be considered for an award by submitting your log to the sponsor do you have to follow the sponsor's rules. Really, you need only worry about your own skill development, not whether others are developing their skills or not. And, really, are CW skills as important today as the technology skills you learn from integrating remote operating, skimmer, code readers, scp, etc. into your station? The only people who can put up their hand and say yes are the hardcore CW contesters. And hardcore CW contesters need the people who want to have fun with whatever technology is available, regardless of how they copy your call. Otherwise, CW contesting would always resemble Sunday afternoons in the Sweepstakes. 73, Ken, K6LA / VY2TT

                Sure makes sense to me. Clear and to the point.
