No, you're not the only one.  The only problem is that there needs to
be constraints on the number of classes.  It didn't help SS at all
when they went from A-B-M-Q to A-B-M-Q-U-S.

I think maybe something along the lines an unlimited class where SO2R,
CW Skimmer, packet spotting, high power, etc, could go and then SOLP
for everyone else.

Maybe not, but I'd hate to see *even more* different classes.  I'm all
for a "level" playing field, but if you try to account for everything
(like the contests with "Tribanders and Wires only"), it gets silly.
