There's nothing like opening up a good ol' "hard copy" magazine and seeing your
call
in print -- even when it's for a measly four or five QSOs. I know -- I've
been there a lot.<<
Amen!
Maybe time to stay away from one run (strike) and "save" ARRL even mo'mony by
not having to write about the "crummy" contests at all? Don't you guys enjoy
picture of the tribander on a parking lot instead?
Don't you guys love to look through 1950 something contest result listings
and see how you started, way down on the bottom? I do, especially if there was
a
picture of that young, lean, mean, contest nut.
In the ARRL "wisdom", maybe we should put everything on the web or hard drive
and then have it crash and wipe out the history of the mankind :-)(
