Can you tell us more about the 'laws' of one-way-propagation, Phil? I have heard of this for many years but have _never_ been able to find any proof of it - only opinions.

From another point of view, many listeners might be observing
a waterfall, all at the same time from various locations.
Some might see a 'point' as occupied while others do not. Since
there are no fixed frequencies, adjacent operating points vary.
In addition, the 'laws' of one-way-propagation can apply.

QRL or no QRL. Waterfall or no waterfall, contests have become
for me, a matter of overblown egos and budgets. That's why I
seldom participate and if I do make an exchange I don't submit
a log. I really don't care about making points.
