RB> Hi all,
RB> Regarding QSO points in SCC RTTY Contest...
RB> It is just so Rich explained... You can get MAX 3 points for 1 QSO (working
RB> station outside your own continent).
RB> 1. General rule: (1) QSO point is for the contact within your own country
RB> 2. (2) QSO points for contacts within your own continent but outside your
RB> own DXCC or WAE country;
RB> 3. Exception for the stations from W, VE, VK, ZL, ZS, JA, PY, LU and
RB> UA9/UA0:
RB> 1 point: Contacts within your own call area (exp. N2AMG - NW2D)
RB> 2 points: for contacts within your own country but different call areas
RB> (N2AMG - W9HLY or N2AMG - W2UP/3, JA1AA - JA9XX....)
RB> 4. (3) QSO points for contacts outside your own continent
RB> All the well known RTTY SW on the market have their contest modules written
RB> exactly according the rules and like explained above (Writelog, WF1B,
RB> RckRTTY ...)

>> Could someone clairify the QSO points for the SCC contest for me..
>> Looking at the web site rules I see the following:
>>
>> - One (1) QSO point for contacts within your own DXCC or WAE country;
>>
>> I understand this one
>>
>> - Two (2) QSO points for contacts within your own continent but outside
RB> your own DXCC or WAE country;
>>
>> I understand this one
>>
>> - Two (2) QSO points for contacts between different W, VE, VK, ZL, ZS, JA
RB> and PY call areas, LU provinces and Asiatic Russia UA9/UA0 oblasts;
>>
>> This one gives me trouble. In reading this If I have a contact with a

>> Two (2) QSO points for contacts within your own continent but outside your
RB> own DXCC or WAE country;
>> and
>> Two (2) QSO points for contacts between different W, VE, VK, ZL, ZS, JA
RB> and PY call areas, LU provinces and Asiatic Russia UA9/UA0 oblasts;
>>
>> A. I'm N2 and I'm working VE2 so the second line is true
>> B. I'm in K and working VE its my own continent but outside my DXCC so
>> the first line is true
>>
>> So is it 2 points or 4 points?????
>>
>>
>> - Three (3) QSO points for contacts outside your own continent.
>>
>> Now if I combine this with the above does that mean I get 5 points if
>> I work VK1????
>> Would I get 2 points for rule #2 and 3 points for rule #3
