In addition, for those running less than 100W, a contest is like a 1kW linear amplifier.

For me, JT65 is king outside of contests. It's the only mode where I can multitask like N6MJ. :^)

It's simple economics to me. Why should I spend months or years to gather up 
countries for Honor Roll, when I can operate a contest and get multiple band 
DXCC and usually snag several ATNOs in a single weekend? That gives me much 
more time for other hobbies, and is much more efficient use of my time!

(and why my HF station is dormant except major contest weekends....)
