[VHFcontesting] Protest Logs

[James Duffey]

Marshall - Unfortunately, submitting a zero QSO log and not  
particpating will send the wrong message to the ARRL. They will think  
participation is down and may consider canceling the contest. Look at  
the endangered life the UHF contest lives.

Consider another form of protest. Note your protest in the soapbox.  
Submit a sidebar complaining about the dismissal of the assisted  
category to the contest summary author. Submit the header in all lower  
case, including your call. This will standout in the logs received.  
Send a copy of your log with the soapbox complaining about the  
elimination of the assisted class to your ARRL Director, the PSC  
committee, the VUAC committee, your section manager, and the ARRL  
contest manager. Ask others to do the same. Sign /? or something  
unique for protest. Complain to all the usual ARRL suspects. Be  
creative. Ask others to do the same.

I am not an EMEr, so I don't have an ox in this pull, but fewer  
contests can't help anyone. - Duffey
