The use of paper logs and lack of automated sending was a major limitation in
how many QSOs I could make per hour this year, and how much effort it took to
make the ones I did.
The big problem, I remember, was the dupe sheet. I recall operating at a club
station years ago in 'multioperator' mode...we had two operators, one to make
contacts and one to dupe and log! The Sweepstakes is a relatively easy contest
to dupe, because you can only work a station once. Contests like the CQ WW in
which you can work the same station on each of 6 bands are much harder. And
taking into account the insane call letter assignments that are the rule today,
it's almost impossible to a decent job without a computer.
