[CQ-Contest] WPX CW

I am simply speaking about the one example I gave.  Nothing more.  Role
model? Hardly.  Just "competing in a contest".  Watch a 1/4 mile stock car

So, looking at it from the other side, if you bully your way thru a contest,
doing the types of things described previously in this thread, it makes you
a great contester that others should use as a role model?
