ICOM provided rigs at no cost to those who couldn't or didn't want to 
bring their own rig to WRTC. Elecraft rigs were owned by the 
participants, and were about 2/3 of the rigs in use. Also, many 
participants don't care (or don't know) if their rig is dirty on CW, and 
those ICOM rigs are (although not as nasty as the Yaesu rigs).
