No, Yuri, you're not.  But it isn't going to change.  In the 1998 CQWW,
our J6DX multi-multi lost QSOs with our own operators operating from
another QTH because their calls weren't "legitimate."  Never got a straight
answer to how the committee figured that out since the J6 Ministry of
Communications and Works does not publish a list of J68 calls.  At least
one of our SWODXA members who worked us from Ohio was listed as
a (B) bad call and removed from the log.

The committee intimated that M/M is for the big-boys and that we should
not be involved with the real operators.

I won't be spending my traveling money in the CQWW any time soon.
