[CQ-Contest] CX2DK DQ

[W0MU Mike Fatchett]

Participants are not bound by any rules.  Why is this a problem? Would 
you rather have fewer contacts?  I don't mind working people with 1500 
watt stations in NAQP.  I don't get it.  Lets have less fun?  No thanks!

Single ops with packet are legal but they get tossed in with the Multi ops.

The only people that need to follow the rules are those actually in the 
competition to get their paper award.
