[CQ-Contest] re: NAQP and the (midwest)(south)east coast

[Matt]

Any TRUE competitor shall pack up his gear and head for Kansas wherein he
will operate every contest. Anybody operating outside of Kansas is only
kidding themselves and shall be deemed operating outside of the spirit of
the contest. Multipliers shall be designated as your QTH of birth.

Please give it some thought. All contests should be designed along the
spirit of WRTC. If you can't make it to Kansas for any given contest, don't
operate. It isn't fair to the rest of us.

No matter how you slice it, the West coast does have an overall advantage in
NAQP.  You will never find an NAQP without a pretty good number of west
coast
stations represented in the top ten, even if the South or southeast has good
propagation.  You can easily find lots of NAQP results with minimal
representation in the top ten from stations east of the Mississippi.

I ain't complaining.  Just stating the obvious.  We Florida stations usually
have an advantage in most of the ten meter contests.  The Northeast has an
advantage in DX contests.  So what.  Live with it.  No big deal.
