[CQ-Contest] List of WRTC stations / Results /Overspotting, and its impact

[kd4d at comcast.net]

Good day, Kelly and everyone:

I am concerned about the potential effect of a suggestion "to request the DX 
Cluster operators to kindly employ WRTC filters" on the vast majority of 
participants in the IARU contest.  Relatively few of the callsigns in my IARU 
log are from serious competitors - most are from operators who get on to increase 
country totals, give out a few points, work WRTC competitors, etc..

I think we need to consider the casual operators when discussing proposals like
disabling the packet cluster system or filtering out WRTC calls.  Without them,
contesting would wither away...

73,

Mark, KD4D

Is it not possible, just thinking out loud here, to request the DX Cluster
operators to kindly employ WRTC filters for the course of IARU?
