[CQ-Contest] Improving contesting (was Extreme)

[Felipe J Hernandez]

Randy,

I think that the mentioning trends and comparisons with previous years as well as
pay more attention to the most popular classes will make the write ups more interesting and 
motivating. Talk about regional dog fights and encourage out of the top ten competition.

I believe that better write ups will attract and motivate much more than plaques.
whats a page or two more on the magazine?, considering the econonomic activity that 
contests generate, it is a very small price to pay for magazines and other media.

  What makes a writeup good?  Or, what makes a writeup bad?

  Who reads the writeups?  Should they be written for the participants of the
  contest?  Or for the general ham radio audience as a way of bringing them
  into the game?
