[CQ-Contest] WRTC 2018 qualifications

[Martin , LU5DX]

I forgot about the "infrastructural" aspect.

The infrastructural thing is the nature of our hobby. Results cannot be
fully adjudicated according to the rules of each contest.
There are WRTCers who have made it out of the rules in the past.

We all know about it, we even talk about it during WRTCs.

Even if it's pure speculation, there is something wrong about the
competition.

We'd better focus on that type of things, don't you think.

Otherwise it will become meaningless hobby.

73,
