[CQ-Contest] Spoofed Self spots

[Mark - N5OT]

K9YC said this:

"... with the scoring rules heavily weighted to those around the 
Atlantic basin, make CQWW a complete turnoff for most of us living 
elsewhere."

Whereas I'm sure CQWW is a complete turnoff for K9YC, I wrote back that 
it is not a complete turnoff for N5OT.  I mentioned a desire to see the 
data.  Instead of showing me the data, K9YC said:

"It's available if anyone cares to look."

Jim: I'll bite.  I'm willing to coordinate these numbers for one 
representative CQWW together under one condition: First you define what 
you mean when you say "most" and "a complete turnoff."

To further clarify, I never said CQWW is not more popular in some places 
than others.  I think CQWW is not a level playing field.  I agree that 
it gives east coasters some advantage which some east coasters seem to 
not recognize.  All I said originally was that you don't speak for me, 
since I have operated CQWW from California and Oklahoma many times and I 
have not been turned off by doing so.

If you'll define your terms, I'll get the numbers and post them to this 
forum of our peers so we can all drill down together.
