Here's an interesting tidbit from the WPX rules:
http://www.cq-amateur-radio.com/WPXRules2006NEW52306.pdf
<QUOTE>
(d) Assisted/with Packet (SINGLE-OPASSISTED
ALL HIGH or SINGLE-OPASSISTED
ALL LOW): Same as 1(a) except
the passive use (no self-spotting) of DX spotting
nets or other forms of DX alerting is permitted.
Stations in this category will compete
only with other Assisted stations.
</QUOTE>
Note the use of "DX".
So, in WPX, as long as I use "DX" spots I am
"Assisted", but if I,
being stateside, glean a new US prefix, I am not?
After all this food for thought I think I'll get sick
now. ;-)
