Take what Lee said and add the fact that well-equipped big guns have 
multiple antennas per band, and often have an additional low dipole or low 
tribander just for domestic contests.

No need to go high power in NAQP. Sprints and SS provide enough high power 
overkill for domestic contesting! The existence of cheating is no reason to 
change the rules -- heck, I could bitch about all the 3, 5 or 10 kW stations 
on 160M, but instead I'll just try to beat them with my wimpy 1.5 kW.
