201. Re: [CQ-Contest] Red Card vs Yellow Card (score: 1)
Author: "Edward Sawyer" <SawyerEd@Earthlink.net>
Date: Tue, 9 Apr 2013 09:30:07 -0400
It is quite clear that a Red card vs a Yellow Card is at the discretion of the CQ CC or Director. So either action is allowable under the current rules. For the sake of good Contest oversight though,

I agree with Pete. Knock yourselves out with the open logs provided by CQ (kudos to them, when well ARRL join). Instead of complaining, create your own contest out of the activity with different rule

NOPE! In fact, even worse than that, in 2008 - 2010 when I was one of the primary CW ops, I had to go outside with a flashlight to change bands with a by hand connector change. I did not hear of anyt

Currently, I would say that based on the lackluster enthusiasm for people responding to the 24 hour survey, I think that there will be no meaningful change to the contesting experience based on addin

My point was not to go "prowling for CQing stations" without answers and jump on them. I don't believe anyone is doing that. Certainly not commonly from what I hear. My point was that if I start CQin

I believe the rules should be reworded to end this debate. If the RBN should not be used for monitoring purposes, it should state so by removing it from the QSO alerting sub topic only (it can stay t
