I've always viewed this as a category that is really bad for contesting,
simply because it reduces the number of calls for the rest of us to
work. Thankfully, I've so far seen only one entry by eight stations on
3830. Sure, it gave them a combined big score, but reading their
comments, that's six fewer stations for the rest of us to work.
Can we please discontinue it? What this operation was really a team, so
let's replace it with a Team category, with team members members limited
to single-op stations within the same state in the US, Canada, and
Russia, and the same country elsewhere.
