Hey, guys.  I got it!!!!  We can solve this easily.

Just outlaw S&P stations and the whole problem goes away.  Who needs 'em 
anyhow!

The aim is gain two way contacts?    I thought it was to work as many
people as possible and as many mults.  Pileup control is done by giving
callsigns.  So in an effort to placate the I NEED IT NOW  society a
rules change has been made to remove a viable strategy from a run
station so that S&P stations can get a call or verify a call faster.

The next rule change we need is that everyone gets a shiny trophy and we
have no winners and losers..................
