[FQP]Mobile Categories

[Tom Horton]

Hal,
  As an old county hunter mobiler like Charlie and Ed (KN4Y), I totally 
agree with you!
Single operator meaans just that, in my opinion.
  I got stung with that many years ago in a county hunter contest, and I 
will never
operate mobile in another where a driver is used with an operator.
There is no problem with that, except that it isn't fair.
I wrote the rules to the West Virginia QSO Party last year and that was one 
of the rules put in.
But as soon as it got to the "comittee" that part got kicked out. So never 
mind.
  The MARAC County Hunter Contests also discriminate since there are no 
power levels.
Just tain't fair McGee!
73, Tom K5IID
