So, let me get this straight....

RAC splits Ontario into 4 sections, but won't use those sections in RAC 
contests.

ARRL (which is independent from RAC) does use those new sections in ARRL 
contests.

Sorry, but I continue to believe that this is a poor decision by the ARRL. 
Maybe 
it should be reconsidered by the ARRL Board of Directors at their January 
meeting.

73,
Steve, N2IC
