[CQ-Contest] CAC club study

[Jim Pratt]

The ARRL Contest Advisory Committee has been asked to look into the rules 
surrounding club competition in ARRL contests.  We are taking a 
top-to-bottom approach to this, not just tweaking the rules here and there.  
Questions are being asked like why is there a club competition, how can club 
competitions be made better, are there enough club categories, should there 
be teams, should a club have to be affiliated to compete, etc.  Three 
subcommittees have been established to look into this matter, and we report 
to Ned, AA7A, our fearless leader.  I have volunteered to lead the group 
which is discussing "eligibility".  I have solicited input from my 
Division's contesters, but I have seen very little discussion about this 
here on the reflector.  Serving with me on this committee are K1HT, K2WR, 
K4RF and N0IJ.  We would certainly love to hear from you with your comments 
on this matter.  And, of course, so would your Division's CAC 
representative!

We are to report to the Membership Services Committee in the middle of 2001, 
so we have some time to discuss this.  Please let your feelings be known!

73, Jim  N6IG
CAC Representative, Pacific Division
Chair, Eligibility Subcommittee
