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^)
