I'd like to make a request to all logbook program programmers:

Limit the size allowed for a brag file to 20 words or less.

Frankly, I'm not interested in spending the time receiving the sending 
station's dog's DNA, the size of their computer's hard disk, how much 
RAM it has etc.   The small segments that digital modes reside in don't 
need this kind of additional QRM.

Seriously.  There seems to be no consideration given to the speed of 
transmission of RTTY and PSK31.  They are slow speed modes.  I get the 
impression that many of the recent converts to RTTY and PSK31 bring 
along their PACTOR brag files without thinking of the impact.

I do have an answer to those who insist in sending me such longwinded 
files.  I have a brag file which contains the value of PI to 10,000 
digits.  I start it in return......
