[CQ-Contest] Convergence and Change

Davor,

With all respect for your efforts in trying to "prove the case", but your
conclusion says absolutely nothing.

You pick the raisins of the cake and try to prove that Unassisted is less
rewarding than Assisted. All is completely hypothetical, and we will never
know how much more points each of the Unassisted station would have gained
extra, in case they used assistance...

This issue is not related to the Top 10 at all. This is about stations in
normal locations, with less than Big Gun set up, competing with similar
stations in the same continent or country. In this group, you will see a
big advantage, when you compare both categories. That is, in case you knew
who was unassisted and who was not, and if the categories were joined. In
this way you will ensure that the contesters are in the same category, and
the obvious result is that best operators using assistance would have a
5-10% advantage at least...

I participated in SOAB(A) last year in CQWW CW. I am not against the class
as such, but I am very, very pleased that we have two different classes,
depending on the ambitions, the mood, and the location/station I am
operating from.

To force thousands of Unassisted into the same click and shoot group as the
others, is the first step to kill contesting really.

Just because some committees see bigger risk with non-calimed assistance,
and the challenge to detect such cheating, does not mean they solve the
cheating problem that way. Detecting cluster and RBN-cheating is far easier
than detecting excessive power cheating in all three power categories.
Believe me, my geopgraphic position gives me excellent feeling for which
stations power cheat, both in my own territory and in Europe...

The biggest challenge is for contest committees to trace and determine
power cheating - not in telling if a station cheats with cluster.
