[CQ-Contest] Contest Categories & SO1R vs. SO2R & Confession

[Eric Hilding]

Here's a novel concept:  ABOLISH *all* existing categories (which are pretty
much a joke anyway), and sponsors can simply publish a TOP 100 (or TOP
1,000, Top 20,000 etc.) list regardless of hardware , location, power or
skillset levels.

 

As much as I detest cut numbers, I confess I temporarily joined the wolf
pack (as an experiment) during my limited QRV in the CQ WW CW.  I mostly
sent a ramped up ENNT3 as my exchange (just like the Big Gun cut numbers
folks do).  Ahhhhhhh. I had  requests to repeat my exchange in about seven
percent of the QSOs made ;-(

 

73.
