I cannot believe the piling on of this guy's page. I'm pretty sure
everyone on this reflector who is interested in this topic is an adult
and as such can make their own decisions as to the veracity of the
gentleman's claims. Hall of fame RTTY contester Don AA5AU mentions
using an energy drink which seems like it would fall into the same
category as all the stuff SND is talking about - and I don't recall the
masses grabbing pitch forks and going on a hunt for Don's head.
I've preached to my adult children for decades that being an adult is
all about living with the decisions you make. But the great thing about
being an adult is that you can make up your own mind, and proceed as you
believe best.
It pretty much kills me to get over 36 hours in a contest. Just from a
fatigue standpoint having found the right chair a number years back. So
I may give Joe's OTC cocktale a go on the next big one and see if I can
have a BIC time with a 4-handle. And if I croak as a result of that, it
will have been my decision and done by my willing hand.

That’s only partially true. Things like muscle Milk and the stuff that Joe has
pointed out are perfectly fine in sports at all level.
Performance Enhancing Drugs (PED’s), however are not. Things like HGH are not
something I want in my body.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Endurance UP-Date
Many of you participated in the survey about this subject of
Endurance in Contesting that I posted on several of the E-Mail groups. I
thank all of you who replied. This is a follow up on what everyone told
me, and possibly something for all of you aging contesters that can not
stay up all night that I discovered, or actually Remembered from 20+
years ago!
Now I won't tell you all about it here, just too long of an
explanation. So I made a web page that gives complete details on what it
is and how if interested how you can also try it. I know it is night
and day for me! I did the first test on the ARRL Sweepstakes CW
weekend, and for the first time in over 10 years I was able to do the
whole contest. And just to make sure it was not a fluke I tried it again
for the SSB weekend with similar results. Below is the link to the web
page all about it.
I hope maybe some of you all may benefit from this.
