[CQ-Contest] WRTC de K4XS

[K4XS via CQ-Contest]

I have no dog in this fight.  
 
First, my operations in any of the contests mentioned for  qualifying will 
probably be assisted.  Second, if I do qualify I probably  will not be 
competing in the WRTC.
 
That being said I think the concept of putting SOA and SO on the  same 
level for qualification is just plain dumb.
 
Two reasons for this:
 
First, all things being equal it's rather obvious that an assisted  score 
will contain more mults than one without assistance from the  internet which 
produces a higher qualifying score  It's pure baloney  that running assisted 
will produce a lower score.  Those of us who have  proficient in SOA know 
better.
 
Second, for the WRTC no internet assistance will be allowed.   Why in 
heavens name do you qualify running assisted, but in the competition  cannot use 
the interent?   It's like allowing race cars to qualify for  a race....some 
use restrictor plates, some don't.  However, all will be  judged equally.  
Then, to make it even more bizarre, the actual race will  have restrictor 
plates for all cars.  Huh?  Let's either have internet  for qualifying and 
competition or else not have interent for qualifying and  competition.  I'm 
happy either way.
