[CQ-Contest] The use of one callsign

[Bob Cox]

Dear Contesters,

The CQWWCC listens to reasonable requests. If an individual callsign is NOT obtainable but permission to operate is granted, then it is possible to petition the CQWWCC for a waiver regarding a different callsign for each entry. This happens VERY rarely. In the case of A61AJ, no individual callsigns are available. In order to be allowed to use the same callsign, they petitioned the CQWWCC. Their request was reviewed and it was agreed that indeed more than one callsign was not possible. The petitioneers were asked to not cooperate in any way either on the air or off the air during the contest as pertains to their class of entry. 

The purpose of the contest is to have fun and encouage contesting. It serves no purpose to prevent an entry if the integrity of the contest is upheld.

Every year we receive several requests regarding extraordinary circumstances. Some are granted others are refused. In the end, CQWWCC decides what is reasonable and what is not.
