[CQ-Contest] 2010 WPX Rule Change Review

[Mike McCarthy, W1NR]

Why not simply retire the old records and start new? Other sports do
this when there are significant rules or other changes.

> 7. We recognize that this change may make some established MS records

> conditions, now is the ideal time to make a change.
