[CQ-Contest] 3V8SS disqualified from WW SSB and WRTC

[Joe]

I also like this self spotting.

BUT.....  and there always is a BUT isn't there? I like the three QSO's 
rule, BUT.  there needs to also be a max per hour?

Then gain here we are, back to the same problem, UG!

I can just see someone spotting themself after every q.

After all, when you call CQ on CW you are, in effect, self spotting. There is a huge advantage in being spotted and, on SSB, there is a huge difference in the number of spots for different stations giving advantage to those who are spotted frequently and quickly after a frequency change. 73...
