I totally agree the top ops could adapt to using packet if they were forced
to.
The point I think is being missed is that the top ops do not want to use
packet. They do not want someone helping them find multipliers. They enjoy
doing it for themselves. In fact, they think that the creation of packet
pile-ups is one of the worst things to happen to radio contesting since the
invention of the speech processor.
