One of those who finished in the top ten in CW section was dipoles plus
an inverted L for 40/80/160, not even a tribander. Shouldn't
demonstrated abuse be at the root of a discussion like this? What abuse?

This whole thread has been like the medieval arguments over how many
angels could fit on the head of a pin.
