It was never about you Jim.

No, it's about east coast stations in DX contests (and DXCC) starting on third base and thinking they hit a home run. Anything based on countries count gives anyone around the Atlantic Basin a huge advantage. You realize it when you say you're competitive with stations in W1, who are hundreds of miles closer to EU, but discount it when thinking about stations that are 3,000 miles farther from EU.

Out here in W6, DXCC Honor Roll and Top of the Honor Roll is a lifetime achievement -- at Visalia, the guys standing at the end of the honor roll countdown have to be helped to stand up!
