Logs should be public.  There are no secrets.  Everything I know (knew?) about radio contesting I either learned on the air or I asked someone else.  Those guys who are perennial top operators answered every question I ever asked.  Maybe the hard part was figuring out what I should be asking in the first place.  

It's like baseball.  Ted Williams was famous for telling his teammates and anyone else who would listen how to hit one.  You could watch him do it, he'd tell you how he did it, and almost no one could duplicate his success.
