[CQ-Contest] IARU R1 proposals

[Guy Molinari]

I read the petition and I agree with it 100%.   We need contest free zones.

 

Maybe there is an elmer out there that can show them the button that says 18 mHz.

 

73,

> >> Background
> >>
> >> The CQ WW Contest Committee wrote following to the DARC:
> >>
> >> Begin of quote:
> >>
> >> Each of the major international contests operates under its own set of
> >> guidelines and rules. The CQ WW Contest Committee respects and
> >> supports your hard work. Each major contest has its own set of rules.
> >> A violation of those rules can lead to disqualification of an entrant. 
> >> The
> >> recent increase in technological advances has made certification of top
> >> scoring entrants very difficult to adjudicate. Those entrants who choose
> >> to violate the rules are becoming more sophisticated. In order to bring
> >> pressure on the small number of entrants who seek to violate the rules,
> >> the CQ WW Contest Committee brings before you the following proposal.
> >> Disqualification of an entrant in any of the participating contests will 
> >> lead
> >> to check-log status in all the other contests for a period of one year. 
> >> One
> >> year ineligibility will commence with the public announcement publication
> >> of the entrants call sign by the contests organizers. The call sign and 
> >> the
> >> reason for disqualification will be shared with all participating 
> >> contests.
> >>
> >> End of quote.
> >>
> >> DARC would like to know more about the disqualification practice of other
> >> contest organizers within the IARU Region 1 and therefore ask for any
> >> contributions concerning this topic.
> >>
> >> Recommendation
> >>
> >> That the HF Committee should analyze the current situation.
