[Elecraft] Re: Rediculous [sic], unreasonable and selfish firmware feature request..

In my opinion, it's not a good idea.  The buttons on the K2 are too small and 
not well located for this application.  They are also not durable enough.  It 
would only be useful for some contests (in the Sweepstakes, the exchange usually 
starts with the call of the station you are working), and is far better 
performed in the logging software.

The feature would use valuable processor memory and who would use it?  Not 
casual operators and DXers, and not serious contesters.  I vote NO.
