It's too bad you guys can't come up with original arguments - the "wire vs
beam" and "hand log vs computer" and "east coast vs midwest" crap comes up
every single time anyone dares to say anything about SO2R, even though the
arguments being made about SO2R are different every time...

I have another suggestion...
...how's about an article on how easily the ops with COMPUTERS AND CONTEST
LOGGING SOFTWARE blow away the competition.. Look at a couple of years
worth of contest scores and compare the highest LOGGING SOFTWARE scores to
the highest done with PAPER AND PENCILS scores (in high and
low power categories) to show that the best LOGGING PROGRAM scores on
average 1/4th to 1/3rd higher than the best WRITTEN BY HAND scores; that
LOGGING SOFTWARE provides a greater advantage than by WRITING ALL THAT
DAMN STUFF BY HAND(compare PAPER AND PENCIL high power to LOGGING SOFTWARE
low power scores which shows that LOGGING SOFTWARE LP wins over
HAND WRITTEN HP almost every time); and, why contest committees,led by the
ARRL, continue to refuse to acknowledge the LOGGING SOFTWARE advantage,
including published admissions by top LOGGING SOFTWARE ops that it is a
fantastic, though somewhat complicated and costly advantage to obtain.
anyone else have any ideas?
