I did not research it much the other night but now I am looking over it more
closely. Not that I am all that interested in having anything done with NA
for this particular contest........but in case some of you want to take Dave
up on his offer I have checked over the rules and it would appear to be a
pretty simple addition to NA.
The only thing that I see that might be a problem is a case where a station
outside of Asia calls you.....if you wanted to log it eventhough it counts 0
points, it would still go into your log as a qso that is worth points and
possibly count as a multiplier (under WPX rules). The only way to make it
score zero points in this case is to go deeper into the scoring scheme.
What do you think Dave?
Note 1: Single Operator stations means that one person performs all
concerned operations during contest period. Use of PacketCluster is
permitted.
Note 4: 10 minutes rule (CQ WW method) is applied to Single Transmitter
stations.
(2) For YL stations: RS(T) report plus operators' age, but if the operator
does not want to send her age, RS(T) report plus "00" (zero zero) can be
sent.
(This is the one place where two zeros would have to be accepted in the NR
field.)
(2) For non-Asian stations:
a: Points - Perfect contact with Asian stations (excluding U.S. auxiliary
military radio stations in the Far East, Japan) will be counted as follows:
a.. 160 m band - 3 points
b.. 80 m band - 2 points
c.. 10 m band - 2 points
d.. 40, 20, 15m band - 1 point
b: Multipliers - The total number of different Asian Prefixes (according to
the WPX Contest rules) worked on each band.
