[CQ-Contest] RE: WPX question

[John Kent]

It means that you're *competing* directly only against those in the same 
category, not that your contacts need to be with other stations in your 
category.  You work stations in all categories, but your final score is 
compared with those in your own category to determine the winner of the 
category (as in most conetsts).
