The main reasons I can see for entering contests are to have fun and 
work DX.  Only a few stations have a realistic chance of winning, so why 
don't the others just have fun, make QSOs any ligitimate way they can, 
then send in a check log?  With a modest station I would rather spend 
time working DX stations which are usually not available outside 
contests than calling DX stations for ages on the back of their beam, 
knowing that they could hear me if only they knew I was there.
