[Albert Crespo]

I have been sworn by these lids for operating on 14302 KHz. They deserve 
nothing but contempt.

>>> This one from DARC might be of interest to radiosport enthusiasts.
>>>
>>> Introduction
>>>
>>> It is proposed to discuss disqualification practices within IARU Region
>>> 1.
>>>
>>> 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.
