Dave: Thanks for the info. Now things make more sense. What I would suggest to the Committee going forward, would be some sort of "succession system" in The rules to some reasonable depth -meaning it
Mark Yep that is it. Thanks for the info. I think we can put this one to bed. 73 Steve Something like this? http://wrtc2018.de/index.php/en/competition/selection-policies-2 73, Mark, KD4D ___________
Hi all: It's not quite that straightforward. "Remoting" can mean a bunch of different things. There are the "Rent A Stations", (both Remote and In Person), some of which are Professional Level revenu
FWIW, While I don't think FT8 is just a fad, it is not going to be as dominant as people think over the long haul. HF ops are enjoying it right now, because It allows pretty much anyone who can radia

I was wondering about the following situation .. I was scheduled to operate at one of the HQ stations for this contest. In this case, this particular station was doing 15 and 40M CW, with stations in
Hi Tom et al: I asked around about this before the WRTC closing ceremony tonight. The general consensus is, "There are no rules for the HQ stations." One of the reasons I assumed that there *were* ru
Thanks, this definitely clears that up. One thing that was confusing for me was I did look at the contest rules on the ARRL Web Site, and while it stated that HQ stations could be at multiple sites,
I think we're going to go round and round on this and overthink it to death. . I know that assisted vs. unassisted is a much bigger issue in NA than it is in EU. I'm not sure that is a good thing tho
This is where I think people end up overthinking it. True "fairness" is just not going to happen in any contest, ever. The closest you can get to it is something like WRTC, and that isn't feasible (o
I know this isn't a rule, but ..I do think folks who have KH/KL/KP calls should sign /W7 or whatever when they operate from the lower 48. Just seems like a courtesy, and it's what I do when I'm in th
In this scenario, I would expect that some UA1 will win the contest with a score of 0. Two comments/stories. First, I hold the record for minimum score in a real contest (see below, for meaning of "r
Hey folks: I've installed MMTTY a bunch of times with two installs for SO2R. I'm trying to do it now, and ..for the life of me, no matter what, on the second install, it will *NOT* prompt me for a di

Hi all: I was wondering if you could explain the "Special WRTC Style Two Operator M/S" and "Special WRTC Style Two Operator M/2" categories? Thanks/73 Steve KL7SB http://wrtc2022.it Just in time...!
True dat, but enough dark & stormys and you won't care. 73 Steve KL7SB often /VP9 I'd like to sell a bridge to anyone who believes they can win a Team Leader position by operating in VP9... 73 Fr
To be serious for a second .. I'm pretty much of the "It's up to the organizers" school. I still *think* the idea is to have fun in the contests themselves. Easy for me to say I guess, I've never com

Even from the East Coast, unless I wanted to spend some time in the Bay Area, I'd still probably fly to Fresno. I'm not sure if you are in Eastern or Western Pa. but the only non stops from either PI
