I think this is the best idea of all. Can we turn off all the "equalization"
discussion now? If everybody were equal, wouldn't we all be mediocre? As it
is, we can all achieve what we choose to/are capable of - and that is not
mediocre.
I would simply like to be able to compare my results to similarly equipped
stations. I don't need more wallpaper. I have quite a bit already from various
things - both in and out of the ham hobby.
