I've signed up with a serious multi-single CQWW CW effort from a fairly juicy
DX location. In thinking of ways to maximize our score, I have considered
using the phone bands, possibly including the WARC bands, to find stations on
SSB who will qsy to CW to work us for a contest qso.
Is this a violation of the contest rules or ethics? Would the SSB operations
be bound by a 10 minute rule, so long as the actual CW qsos conformed?
I'm talking about real CW qsos, not a "whistle into the mike" or say
"di-di-di-di-di dah-di" kind. I would consider qsying into the CW portions
of a band a reasonable requirement. But is the basic concept OK? If not, why
not?
