If a contest is going to use the 'cut' system it probably would not hurt to document that on the web page, QST or where ever they advertise it. That would help out the folks not familiar with the procedure to recognise what they are hearing.
The problem I have with only 'N' is which does it apply to and the first ones range is 1 to 5 not 1 to 9. The remaining two are 1 to 9, the ENN is about as short as you can get it and still make sense. On the otherhand since everyone is always a 599 regardless, why not leave it out completely? 8^) -- 73 Chuck AA8VS -- William Arthur Ward -------------- Original message -------------- > Why even send as much as ENN.
