[CQ-Contest] NAQP Rules

Seems to me that the authority a contest committee has is ONLY in relation to those logs 
it receives, SO, if you ain't submitting a log, and hence aren't in competition with 
rules-abiding entrants, the only determining factor becomes the limitations of your 
licence.

Also STM, that the power restrictions are an attempt to level the playing field, as it 
were, so if you're not on the playing field, you're not upsetting the balance.

Any more thoughts?
