You are forgetting about unlicensed members of the 'public' (SWL's), which
then makes 'amateur' contesting a 'public' performance venue (at least SSB
Contests) whether anyone likes it or not.
What is everyone so friggin' afraid of here, huh?
What is the real fear?
Gheeeeez...
If a Contester expects to get 'public' recognition in magazines that can
even be read outside 'amateur' circles (like QST & CQ in libraries, etc.),
the logs should be available. To heck with all this Ego-Secrecy crap which
is so Jr. High School-ish.
