May I suggest that we try to make the EQP contest unique among current
contests by attempting to give actual (meaningful) signal reports.
Because of the association of this content with QRP, the wholesale use
of 5nn seems really quite out of place. It will also be good practice
to those who haven't fully come to grips with the proper use of RST
reports to learn to make snap judgments about a proper report. Those
snap judgments are usually pretty good, often better than ones that
get deeper consideration.
I agree with your suggestion of giving meaningful signal reports. I'd
stay away from a shorthand report of serial number, though, because it
might confuse someone casually dropping into the contest. The extra "K"
and "SN" will take a small percentage of actual operating time.
Regarding your final comment:
Looking forward to getting some new s/n's, (there aren't any more
states)....
I live in Northern Californis, which by all rights should be declared
