No, it's about east coast stations in DX contests (and DXCC) starting on 
third base and thinking they hit a home run. Anything based on countries 
count gives anyone around the Atlantic Basin a huge advantage. You 
realize it when you say you're competitive with stations in W1, who are 
hundreds of miles closer to EU, but discount it when thinking about 
stations that are 3,000 miles farther from EU.

Out here in W6, DXCC Honor Roll and Top of the Honor Roll is a lifetime 
achievement -- at Visalia, the guys standing at the end of the honor 
roll countdown have to be helped to stand up!
