         Well you say "You can't beat Maine"  I do hope that is not 
completely true.

         I have tried 3 years in a row to have top Low power Single Band 
40 meter

         USA score in WPX CW.

         I have been beaten by the same person  two years in a row.  Yes 
he lives

         in Maine. Thing is YES I am going to try again.  (I am in 
Alabama) only this

         year I'll be a guest op at a local station with a much better 
antenna system.

         My 2 element 40 at 70 ft  just doesn't seem to have enough  push.

         So I'll hope "You can't beat Maine" doesn't hold true. You say 
the difference

         is significant from W2 to Maine ....... try it from Alabama.

            All the best     BoB WA1FCN

>> Joe,You don't have to have a big station to compete.  If you do low power you will only compete against other low power stations. Bryant, KG5HVO is in first place in my region NA5. He has done a bunch of low power efforts with little competition and has got the maximum points for those contests. His score is higher than the top HP station K4AB, which has a big station. But to be fair to Larry he hasn't done as many contests and will probably leap back to 1st place.JeffSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

(I'm puttying my Flame retardant suit on now)  I would like to see this Qualification procedure run say two ways.Divide them up, 1/2 as it is now, anything goes, balls to the wall competition. Mega super stations and all that. Giant towers stacked yagis etc..Then the other half,  have the qualification be like the stations they will be using.A 3 element tribander at like 40 feet or less, and dipoles. and barefoot rigs. Of course no spotting too.I bet there are quite a few operators out there that are just as good and even possibly better than many of the guys that get to go, but these other guys never will be able to go bec
