[CQ-Contest] : Re: NAQP CW - Rules Changes Needed

[iainvest at gmail.com]

If you want to increase the number of participants, then offering an
assisted category makes a lot of sense.  I live in a HOA.  Antenna is hidden
in the trees.  Fortunately I live above the average terrain so I do better
than most with a compromised antenna. The majority of my operating is search
and ponce.  Do I get answered on the first call? Often not. So you call
again.  Then go searching for the next call sign that is not a dupe.
Operating in assisted mode just makes it a lot more fun and results in
spending more time operating in the contest.
