I am sorry, but I have to say this.
The nature of a contest is to improve our skills and have fun by working
other stations and exchanging information. The purpose of the exchange is to
add some skill building and confirmation to the QSO process.
The game is perverted when you use prefill databases to help with the
exchange information.
The jury is still out on whether prefill databases help or hurt your
accuracy over the course of the contest. All so you can save a few key
strokes when logging?
Build your skill and pride of accomplishment by not using a database. Part
of the fun is that nervous anticipation of whether the QRM will happen
before or during the time the guy is sending his exchange!
There, I feel better now.
Randy, K5ZD
