Well, since it is a public forum I have to side with Larry on this.  I am a
contester and enjoy mostly top band operating but I would have to agree that
too much of a good thing gets old quick.  It used to be that you looked
forward to the SP, but warm-ups, pre-warmups etc. seem to carry the theme
too far.

Ah, but that's exactly my point. Those with a limited or no interest in this
event DO have to "participate" in it by virtue of the additional weekend of
chaos that it causes.

Fortunately participation is not mandatory for those who have had enough. 
Given the winter stew was a thunderstorm extravaganza for most of the
midwest, another shot at it prior to spring would be attractive for many.

April may be a bit late to have good low noise conditions.

I tend to agree Larry - even more Stew is not necessarily a good thing.
