The ONLY way to prove illegal power is to be in the shack, or be in the near field of the station with a measuring device. If this is done by a member of the CQWW committee nothing more need be done.
Surely it takes at least 3 levels -- someone to make the initial report, a disinterested local group to investigate, collect evidence and substantiate or rebut, and contest sponsors ready to act in s
