I've already done that. I emailed back and forth, and then visited with them
in Dayton... they told me... sorry...

Wigi,

before giving up and thinking about WRTC 2026, it's your right to ask for a
special amendment to WRTC 2022 CC regarding scoring in NA8 (KL7 vs. VE) for
ARRLs .
Similar cases (ie. RDXC in EU3 between UA2 and the rest of EUs in that
region) do exist and have been fixed with an amendment (v.2.0 Feb 2019)
after the WRTC 2022 CC came out with release v.1.0 back in January 2019.
Contact them and get that fixed!!!
If they don't solve that, feel free to forward the message to me and I will
contact them directly on your behalf to explain them things in Italian. ;-)
I'm not tied to WRTC 2022 CC but know all of them personally.

All in all I know the WRTC 2022 CC sucks compared to the previous organizers
but unfortunately there were no other WRTC 2022 hosting applications.

Besides, beware also with the qualification scores their are posting on the
website. Don't trust them, keep your own spreadsheet because they are a
total mess. There are many mistakes especially in the USA because they are
not normalizing scores against the ARRL section as per log submissions but
on the FCC database.

Regards.

Matt (Y82G WRTC 2018)
