Bob,

I agree with you. I'll be on either 15 or 20 SB/LP, depending on condx the next few days, and although I certainly won't be competitive from the western US, it's nice to be able to compare apples with apples in the results.

Hi All

        Well once again ARRL  DX Contest is coming up and once again I am
        wishing they had Low power category for single band operators.
Now that I am getting into those advanced years ( age 67 Friday ) a full time effort in all bands is getting harder and harder. Now a full time effort on a single band is still simple, but I still compete against those using high power. I am sure I am not the only person who is in this
        situation.  Some other major contest are able to see there way to
implement low power entrants into the results. I would be even happy to see just a little star after the call results line to distinguish the difference
        in power.  And yes I know too many categories reduce the
        value of a win.  Anyone else care to voice an opinion ?
