Default Field day was great, even the phonies had fun and learned fromus dinosaurs.

I call B.S.! If you old, outdated methods of communication are so
superior, then you should have locked up the contest.

So, this means one of two things. 1.) you're not telling the truth, or,
2.) the old methods you claim are superior are really not and the new
"appliance operators" at other clubs using modern methods kicked your
collective butts.

I suspect that 1. is the truth and you did not participate in FD and
didn't teach any news hams anything. In fact, if you did participate in
FD, the "appliance operators" probably ran rings around you and
embarrassed you so bad, you had to create this story to save face.

Nice try, no one is buying the BS.

Even if only three contacts are made, the score isn't what's important.
What is important is showing and training new hams in how to communicate
and operate effectively during emergencies and not be Appliance operators.
Hams like you that worry about final score are more likely to cheat
because you choose to ignore or fail to see the things that are important.
