[CQ-Contest] Packet pile ups - do we need them?

[VR2BrettGraham]

K4XU was close with:

>  Load, fire, aim.

I think more of "turn, brake, signal" - seemingly how folks around here are 
taught
to drive.

But seriously, packet pile ups are not the problem - it used to be that I could
see the spot propagate as reflected by the pile up & it was easy to keep up
with it all.

The problem is that with Internet linking of clusters, it's instantaneous 
chaos.

Which forces me to QSY until I'm spotted again.  I guess I don't hang around
enough to experience enough of what VK5GN described.

Not the desired effect, eh?

Subject: [CQ-Contest] CQWW scoring of locals???


Hi,

I am wondering what's the reason for not counting the same Country in =
CQWW contest? Sometimes it is harder to make this QSO!

copy of rules:
VI. POINTS:
3. Contacts between stations in the same country are permitted for zone =
or country multiplier credit but have zero (0) point value.
