Maybe the authors of the "proposed" rule to clarify the intent and meaning of the "old" rule need to take a course or two in communicating clearly in the English language. I would suggest they contac

It's nice that they are talking and trying to fix any ambiguity. I don't think the suggested change works though. It reads: *_New Rule 2.2:_ Operating Time will be calculated using the elapsed time b

The rule defines a "break" as being 30 minutes minimum. Therefore in the example below, there is only one "break", the 6-hour period in the middle. The rule wording works fine with the possible excep

It sounds like what they are saying, or at least what some people are interpreting the rules as: If you take a break, you must take 2, and they must be at least 30 minutes long....so what I have done

Contest sponsors define the rules for their contest. The ARRL RTTY Round-Up rules stipulate no more than two official breaks. That is intentional to provide a strategic consideration by participants.
