[CQ-Contest] why Unlimited [aka Assisted]?

[Jukka Klemola]

Nah.
The real reason for going unlimited is just to have more Fun.
It is Fun to use one omnidirectional antenna and one QRP radio.
It is More Fun to use a set of monoband small wire antennas and a LP
radio.
It is Added Fun to use a set of yagis, wires and radio with an amp.

Fun adds up the more complexity one brings to the station.
The more difficult the operating is, the more Fun.

Adding a 'help' i.e. internet connection to the station does not ease up
the operating. 
It adds on the challenges for concentration and station complexity.

--> adds Fun.
