The ARRL in the infinite "Bone-Head" wisdom, has finally killed off my participation after 44 years!
They claim this is NOT a contest! So... why keep score? Why have bonus points? Why?
Because the ARRL's Leadership, or lack thereof, has succumbed to ineptitude and a disconnect from "Ham Reality". They, in my mind, are a bunch of mid-guided peons perpetuating what the league has done for years, which is just do what they want....with zero common-sense. Congrats "A-holes"... You win the prestigious "I don't give a crap award".
Face it, Say FD is a contest or it is not. Get on the same page and make a decision.
If it were not for the LoTW program, I would pay THEM to let me out! I hate them with every ounce of being I have. Oh, I long for the good ole days when they 'cared'.
Let's hope they figure it out!
73 and to hell with the ARRL.
