That's true!
500 W since Jan 1st, 2002.
I still remain strictly Low Power, at home, anyway, HI.
I hope you can hear me well also with just 100W.
>From 300 to 500 is less than 3dB so, not too much on the S-meter.
>From 100 to 500 is 7dB, so a little more
but I don't think this may change your life.
Even if I don't know what "back row monkey" means,
I think the burden, is put on the receiving side,
where the "handle" is supposed to be !!.HI.
GL and cu in contest

I hope this will never happen.

working dupes is not a bad thing at all.
We learned that working all dupes is a good thing because if you don't
work him it may cost you triple penalty.
Never say "QSO B4" - just work him, otherwise it will cost you a lot if
he does not call you any more.
Nothing wrong in calling CQ on top of someone else, some of the callers
will not put you in the log, no problem - you'll work them again later.
Because if u don't - it may cost you 4 QSO.
If you hear a multiop station, call them as many times as you can -
their enjoyment is not complete if you don't work each operator.
etc. etc, a lot has been said how to work dupes, but very little how
NOT to make them. This is strange because one good QSO takes less time
than two QSOs (one good and one bad). And no penalty involved.
Besides, the contest goal is to QSO as many different stations as
possible, not to QSO the same stations as many times as possible.
If we lower operating standards we may get more inexperienced ops
which will result in more dissatisfied ops leaving the hobby and in
lower totals and degradation in the long run.
