[CQ-Contest] WAE PHONE CONTEST FREQ, To be or not to be?

[Saulius Zalnerauskas]

Hi everybody,

To be or not to be-that is the question:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_be,_or_not_to_be

This weekend another WRTC event. WAE DX Phone Contest. Very interesting and
of course very important contest for those, who are qualyfying to be
http://www.wrtc2018.de/index.php/en/qualification/selection-criteria-2

Some Team Leaders now has guaranteed, some are with question. And this one
can make a much difference in final tables.

Let's read WAE Contest rules
http://www.darc.de/der-club/referate/dx/contest/waedc/en/rules/ . You can
see *SSB*: 3650-3700; 7050-7060; 7100-7130; 14100-14125; 14300-14350 kHz.

Try to imagine himself if You are one of those qualifiers. Station
(multiplier) calling CQ Contest on 7.128 kHz. Everybody working them.
Because - station is multiplier, so everyone is cheater?

Read what happen if You doing this:
Violation of the rules of the contest or unsportsmanlike conduct will be
deemed sufficient cause for disqualification. The decisions of the
contest-committee are final.

But we go to results and if You are cheater - You are first in the World

and try to calculate how many cheaters You found now from Europe. And they
are WRTC participants.
So where is fair play?

What to do? Explain please.

To be stupid and pretend that nothing is happening, or follow the rules and
remain in last place fool
