[CQ-Contest] prejudicial language

[Joe Subich, K4IK]

Such a fence is not unfair ... it is identical to the situation 
on 75 and 40 meters.  The DX with overlapping allocations will 
work transceive when appropriate otherwise split frequency is 
the rule for SSB DX.  

If split frequency removes any chance of an SSB operator working 
a DX station, how do you account for all the SSB DX worked on 
40 and 75?  The only thing split frequency does is removing the 
chance for SSB operators to "work" DX on a net.
