Randy,
Last WRTC, I learned from the selection criteria how to pave my road to TL.
I'm full committed with PW7T team, so I could use my M/2 efforts to compose
my selection final score and chose some specific events to do Single-Op.
Then, new selection criteria for WRTC2014 says M/2 worth less points than
M/S. Since WRTC operation would be similar to M/S style, just one signal on
the air, that makes sense.
New rules pop up and WRTC2014 will be a pure M/2 style event, but selection
criteria penalize M/2 efforts. That's not making sense anymore.
I know, that is my case only and that is not bothering me. But would be
great If selection criteria mimics WRTC operation style.
73, Luc

> About WRTC2014
>
> The World Radiosport Team Championship (WRTC) is held every four years and
> consists of approximately 50 two-person teams of amateur radio operators
> from around the world competing in a test of operating skill. Unlike most
> on-the-air competitions, all stations are required to use identical
> antennas
> from the same geographic region, eliminating all variables except operating
> ability. Previous WRTCs have been held in Seattle(1990), San
> Francisco(1996), Slovenia(2000), Finland(2002), Brazil(2006), and
> Russia(2010). More information is available at www.wrtc2014.org or contact
> WRTC Chairman, Doug Grant, K1DG, via e-mail at k1dg@wrtc2014.org.
