| Be careful about who you use as an example. When he went to XF4 in the late 
80's he promised T-shirts to anyone who worked them all bands 160-2(satellite). 
I have the cards but still waiting for the T-shirt. It's no big deal because 
the T-Shirt wasn't my incentive for working them on all bands. I don't need 
external incentives, my motivation is to always make sure I'm in every 
expedition log possible. Martti hardly needs to solicit Q's when he's on an 
expedition, his pile-ups usually are huge, whatever the band and whatever the 
time.

  Isn't that "soliciting QSOs by non contest means"?
