For RYRY round up, sure. But not every ham has the equipment to run RYRY. I don't. Why don't we focus on what happens in NAQP since that is where the rule change took place.

Alternatively, we could delete other sections or states because of a paucity of participation. According to the RTTY roundup results from 2016, there was only one log turned in from ME and one log from KP2. There were two logs from NM which does not suffer the type of man-made QRN associated with cities...

And, as it is, -you- only worked or heard one DC station....There was more than one DC station active.

I have exactly the same question. Modern cities are a terrible place to try to do ham radio. I don't know of a single contest station within the city of San Francisco; AB9H and WO9S operate one of two contests from the city of Chicago. I lived and operated from a mixed residential/industrial neighborhood in Chicago, and my station was more modest than that of W3DQ. DC was a multiplier in RTTY RU, and it appears that W3DQ was the only DC station on the air.

There was a decision on including DC as a multiplier for NAQP. At who's
suggestion and, who made the decision to alter the rules?


There are many who would like to know, just why the change was made.


Who will benefit?
