Peter,
 I appreciate the humbleness and acknowledgement and the trend is 
upwards, so we're mostly in agreement .
 I shouldn't think a contester would need to rely on the Internet to be 
competitive. (ie: cqww wpx as one example/can o' worms)

 From now on I will try to be slightly less inclusive.  Please forgive 
me.  It's always good to be reminded to be humble.
 
 Hows this: "for the large community of hams who rely on spotting 
networks, it's
very important that what comes out is a reliable replica of what went 
in."
I'm pretty sure I heard you shout 3 or 4 times. ;)
