RANT: What is the deal with 100's of LF's???	Reply

I am in the SARTG contest this weekend, and normally don't rant, but this has gotten so bad I would like to mention one simple thing that would make exchanges a lot easier, I have noticed that many ops like to insert a ton of line feeds before, during and at the end of a transmission. I guess they think it looks cool on their screen, well it's not cool on my end, I had several stations today that line fed their calls completely off my screen before I had a chance to click the callsign. I had to stop the scroll, run the page down, click on their call and restart the scroll, a real pain in the neck. If you do that with a big station who is really running 'em, he'll probably just ignore you and go on to the next one. One other negative on this is when I see 2 calls, and work one intending to get the next one after you, your page of linefeeds make doing that pretty tuff. One or two LF's is all that is needed guys.

Yeah, plus... It's a big waste of paper... ;-) 73, Dan
