I survived the take whatever timer thing. Actually, there are also now
quite a few 72 guys who are on thier own with only one on a frequency too.
And it's not that hard to find 2-3 people who can handle your timing for
the whole contest. Most rounds it doesn't matter, but with man on man,
it's still rare to find the good timer who really can feed you info on
what the entire field is doing upwind. That is a big help.

The flyer who attends a contest alone must take whatever timer can be

matter who does the timing. If the advent of 2.4 modifies the
environment of competition and makes that so, I, for one, say hurrah!!
