Hi All
        Well once again ARRL  DX Contest is coming up and once again I am
        wishing they had Low power category for single band operators.
         Now that I am getting into those advanced years ( age 67 
Friday ) a
        full time effort in all bands is getting harder and harder.  
Now a full time
        effort on a single band is still simple, but I still compete 
against those
        using high power.  I am sure I am not the only person who is in 
this
        situation.  Some other major contest are able to see there way to
        implement low power entrants into the results.  I would be even 
happy to
        see just a little star after the call results line to 
distinguish the difference
        in power.  And yes I know too many categories reduce the
        value of a win.  Anyone else care to voice an opinion ?
