Well said John...QSO parties are a different breed, particularly with
rovers putting on scarce counties. I noticed a comment on the cluster asking
why people were spotting US stations...as if there should only be rare DX?
Several QSO parities this weekend and a host of special event stations made
for great activity.

I'm sorry if someone was offended. Indeed many, if not most, contest
rules prohibit self-spotting, but the GQP rules encourage self spotting.
In fact, there is a link from the GQP home page to an internet site
where GQP spots are published. I tried to self-spot myself as W4AN/M
three or four times on Saturday when the rate was slow, but, after that,
I was too busy to try to self-spot for more callers, since I had about
all I could handle.
The SECC member's criticism should be directed, if anywhere, to the
rules for the GQP, not at Rick or anyone else who self-spotted.
73, John, K4BAI.
