[CQ-Contest] Does Dayton hurt the WPX CW Contest?

[Douglas Priest]

You guyz are disappointing me....Has anyone thought about setting up a
station in say the parking garage at Stouffers??? Shouldn't be that hard to
put up a three el tribander on the top floor and run a couple wires to the
ground....do a real multi multi field day style...all the guys in the
FRC/NCCC hospitality suite could take turns at the helm and STILL do Dayton.
I can see the operator list now...three pages in CQ Contest :-)

Bill:

I was going to stop by Dayton on the way home from ZD8, but as I've decided
to take another spin at one of those equatorial islands that you so love,
Dayton bites the dust, for me, and WPX here I come...
