My thought,,<br>
If there was a change at all, it would be to make it a Noon till
Midnight operating window, but still only be able to operate 7
hours.<br>
<br>
This way some skills at when to be on is added to the skills needed
to be in the contest.<br>
<br>
Not just a brute force "BIC" marathon.<br>
<br>
This way as stated skills about propagation. and breaks could be
taken for those that can't sit for all 7 hours non stop yet still
want to use the whole time period.<br>

We also do Minnesota and Michigan, and at 10 and 12 hours
respectively, they get a bit long! ( but we do need
michigans 12 hours to complete our big loop around the UP!)<br>
