[CQ-Contest] New category: "Wires only"??

You make a good point, John - A rhombic seems like only one wire, but really 
it's two V-beams connected together, and a V-beam is two elements.  Rhombics 
also can be used on more than one band, with generally more gain and a 
tighter pattern the higher you go, plus greater effective height.  I'm not 
much for the idea of a "wires" category, but if there was a "wires" category 
it might need to specify single half-waves, or a maximum amount of wire in 
the antenna in terms of wavelength.  Or something.
