I'd argue that the issue is a lot more complicated than a DQ. The DQ
fundamentally challenges how the UN is being treated for the purpose of CQ
sponsored contests, or WPX in this case. IMHO this is not a simple decision
that CQ can make on its own or make it AFTER the contest. CQ WPX is not
challenging the integrity of the operator or the operation, but the authority
of the UN to manage licenses for it's own stations and operators around the
world. The fundamental assumption that the FCC has any authority over the UN is
my mind is flawed and not based on the actual status of the UN with respect to
US government laws, regulations, and regulators.
