[arrl-odv:21805] Fwd: Optional ARRL Contest Signal Reports
Looks like all Directors received this. It seems fair to forward this to the CAC for their review and recommendation. Other viewpoints?

Greg, Asking the CAC for input makes sense to me. The lack of a numerical report during contests has become commonplace when other information is communicated, and it may well increase the hourly QSO rate. 73, Mike N2YBB From: G Widin Sent: Saturday, June 29, 2013 8:14 AM To: arrl-odv Subject: [arrl-odv:21805] Fwd: Optional ARRL Contest Signal Reports Looks like all Directors received this.
