[PaQSO] Further - Club Competition

[Ron Notarius W3WN]

Don't remind me!

Before joining SHARC (now WASH) many moons ago, I was a member of another area club.  Just could not get the club secretary to submit the roster to NARC.  Since he was interested in contesting, he couldn't be bothered.  Probably cost me a sheet or two of wallpaper... and the other 1 - 3 guys in the club who operated in PaQSO so-so @ the time also never had a chance at a certificate either.  

Requiring the membership roster is a good idea, it prevents a ringer from artificially increasing a club aggregate score (usually on the lines of "I'm not a member of your/any club, so, since you're my buddies anyway, go ahead and count me in") or from someone less than honorable claiming a fake club membership to win a club from an actual member.  But there has to be a better or another way to accomplish the same goal.

For what it's worth, regarding entries by non-club participants;

Part of the Nittany requirements, back then, was that, in order
to be included in the agregate club score, the entrant must be
listed on a club roster which had to be submitted each year.
