The only comment I have on CQ WW rules change is about the Observer
Program. I would be happy to have an observer. However, I don't know
how to record what I hear. I would need some education and I suppose
some sort of recording device (another computer?). I'd hate to have to
take another computer on my trips. I suppose recording would be
different depending on the rig used. And I wonder about RFI to the
recording device.
If the meaning of the rule is that the recording may be requested after
the contest is over, that could be very hard on a high scorer who
doesn't always record his contests or one who unexpectedly makes a high
score. I do notice that the rule applies to "any entrant" and not just
expected high scorers. If it means that the recording can be requested
prior to the contest (not practical since the committee won't know
definitely whom they want to record), I'd have no problem with that.
I guess the rule change, if adopted, means that all of us will have to
find out how to make a recording and do it for every contest.
