Thank goodness! We haven't had a "everybody is a cheater" post in a couple
of days! I also noticed that the sky is falling but that is another
reflector.

Sure glad to know that there is no cheating in contesting.............
Errr to contest I guess you have to cheat. Is this what the hobby is
turning into? Ignore the contest rules, Ignore your governing body rules
just to play a game? Everyone else does it so it must be ok?
How many people that sit on these contest committee deciding the fate of all
the entrants are aware of these violations yet do and say nothing?

we are competing fairly with each other and within the contest HP limit. The
one rule of some contests (not the CQ WW I am happy to see) I could break
with a clean conscience. And I suspect most HP contesters practice this way
too....but the replies will no doubt be interesting!73 Bob HS0ZIA
