No you don't. I have nothing against SOTB or novices. I finally got one of my
sons to become KG4TBS and working on the second one and his XYL.
What I am trying to say, that ARRL is taking wrong philosphy in cutting the
coverage of contesting (stimulating, competitive activity) in favor fo dumbing
down the coverage in magazines.
You think I do not want more points and multipliers to call me in the contest?
I want all the SOTB to become contest SOBs, you can only attract them by
glorifying and publicizing contesting and not "streamlining" it out of
magazine.
Comprende?
