Personally, I think the whole HQ thing has gotten out of hand in IARU.
While the DA0HQ incident is not completely related, if a change is about to
be made to the contest concerning HQ stations, it should be changed to
making them M/M at one location (just like any other contest) except that
the M/M is carrying the HQ flag of that country's society for the contest
and therefore is a mult.  Then allow the HQs to remain competitive.

 

How to solve the current problem?  Well there is already a prevailing rule
out there on "excessive unique" isn't there?  There should be some
guidelines published and there should be word put out to the local hams who
might be inclined to do such that they need to work some other people as
well as their "desired" HQ station, otherwise they may inadvertently
disqualify the desired HQ station for "too many uniques".
