I avoided it like I do with all Contests & Nets. I am a DX Chaser & don't play with either of those. I'm a Former Contester & Contest Winner on VHF & I burned out on it long ago.

I totally understand.

I didn't either, just had conditions and talked.

I join another dx club in the process so that was pretty cool!
