Summary...I think the area to address is the "Scoring" methodology...and NOT
with Quotas or limits or having to be worried about "defining" the behavior.
If the incentive is not there in the scoring methodology, the behavior will
change.
---------------------------
Spot on, John. The issue is based on the scoring methodology. Why is this
such a big deal? Because it is trivial to move a staion 1-meter to the North
(crossing a "gridline") and be able to re-contact everyone in the log
again...on all bands.
It is important to remember that the ARRL contest branch has overtly approved
the results of exploiting this strategy. The only saving grace is to find some
way of revealing the behavior more publicly in the line scores and allow the
"court of public scrutiny" shape the future.
