Just looking through the various categories in the CQ WW and CQ WPX Contest and
noted the proliferation of categories -
Tribander Single element overlay - etc - Should a higher category be awarded to
a station that doesn't beat a lower category as per WRTC ?
Eg If a QRP station out-gunned all the HP stations should they get a clean
sweep of all categories ? After all, they were the best operator.
Same in Multi Op - should a MM that fails to beat M2 or M1 stations be awarded
best MM or should the M1 be graded as 1st Multi Op station ?
It seems to me that we are chasing participation certificates and many have
lost the pursuit of excellence.
