    Then I take it you don't contest much, either?

    Pile-ups don't bother me. I find them amusing at times. It's entertaining to listen to some of these morans trying (badly) to work DX, when it's obvious they have no clue what they're doing.

    No. I never really got into contesting, but contest weekends have never bothered me. There is lots of room on the bands, plus my ever growing shit-to-do list limits my air time, anyway. That's the nice thing about the hobby, there's something for everyone. Sometimes, if I don't have a lot of time to talk, I'll make a few contacts and pass out the required info to give a few points to others, but I never "go for the gold". Funny thing, even after that little bit of contest participation, I get a burning desire to take a shower, almost like going to a hamfest. Go figure. :chin:
