The rules governing each of our FCC licenses explicitly require that, on 60 and 
30 meters, we cause no interference to authorized non-amateur stations 
(97.303(h) and (j)).  Contesting on these two bands simply is incompatible with 
complying with these requirements and meeting our obligations. In many cases we 
wouldn't even be able to hear the station(s) that we must protect through the 
contest bedlam that we all have come to love.

We made a pact with our non-contesting brothers that we’d stay off WARC.  We 
ought not break our word.
