Yes, sad to say it, but the contesters are just out there to make the 
most points.  I got on a "RTTY" contest once, using MMTTY.  But with the 
macros, all you did was click a couple of buttons and a contact was 
made. I lost interest in it pretty quickly.

A "QSO Party" type gathering would probably make more sense for us HM 
operators.

73 & have fun,

I suddenly have a vision of an AI computer calling CQ, making the contact, recording the log, and going to the next. Worse yet, a second AI computer answering the CQ and talking to the first! Ugh.
