[CQ-Contest] radio and bowling

[Gilmer, Mike]

Another problem with the comparison is that in bowling (and golf), handicaps
are based on the bowler's abilities, not on his equipment.  There are things
that are illegal - they get you DQed - otherwise no one gets penalized for
using the latest high-tech polyurethane ball, or finger-tip grip, or a wrist
brace. 

Let's face it - there isn't a single sport that compares (well) with
radiosport.
