Exactly. That's why power classes in a contest are a waste of time.
Unenforceable, unfair, where do you draw the line?
I ran 100W to an Optibeam 11-5 at 60ft. Had an email from one station in W8
who gave me points; he was running 1KW to a CB antenna on his balcony. So
what? Which was the 'high power' station? Could he still watch TV? :-)
Forget the supposed negative comments, fuss, whatever. Enjoy the fact that
10M is good and there were plenty of stations to work!
