[CQ-Contest] Cheerling - Again

[Jan Erik Holm]

Yes we have to do something about this "friends working friends"
deal. You know some people got more friends then others so letting
people work friends doesnt make it fair.
Bad enough to spot friends or club members (even former) but to
actually make a contesr QSO with a friend surely must be worse.
