It appears that the rules specifying points per QSO have been aligned across
all three modalities for the WPX contests. Rule VII.(c) in both the CW/SSB and
the RTTY WPX rules specify one point per QSO for QSOs between stations in the
same country regardless of band.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] WPX RTTY Rules confusion
In the rules for the 2008 WPX RTTY Contest, it says that QSOs between
stations in the same country are worth 1 point on 10/15/20 meters and
2 points for 40/80 meters. See
http://www.cq-amateur-radio.com/36-RTTY_WPX_Rules_Jan08.pdf
In the rules for the 2009 RTTY Contest, it says that QSOs between
stations in the same country are worth 1 point regardless of what
band they are on. See http://www.cqwpx.com/rules_2009.pdf
There is no mention of any rule change this year on the cqwpx website
and Writelog and (I was told) N1MM are scoring the logs the old way,
allowing 2 points for same country QSOs on 40 and 80 meters.
Which is correct? Or is the unpublished point change for the RTTY WPX
contest a typo?
