Considering the high price to be paid for being disqualified in the current 
WRTC qualification environment, perhaps the contest sponsors should simply 
not accept any log sent in by one of these "protesters".  This is certainly 
different from covert use of packet, additional operators. and other forms 
of cheating that we've run into recently.  They were scarcely hiding what 
they were doing.
