[CQ-Contest] KP2MM Disqualified in ARRL CW 2012

[W0MU Mike Fatchett]

Why not upgrade and then not every worry about this again.  *IF* KV4FZ 
was there the entire time as the control op then why not ask them to 
reclassify your logs to assisted?  Just because you did this in the past 
and were not DQed does not make it right.
