Perhaps a different approach is to make it available to people who are
interested in hearing it.  There are probably some people who are not able
to operate the contest and would appreciate the opportunity to hear what it
sounds like.  Also - Eric is a top notch operator and being able to listen
to how he uses two radios might be educational for some.

I really doubt there is going to be abuse of this - despite what our
imaginations come up with.  I know K5ZD and others have done this for other
major contests.
