Just a reminder that the Stew Perry contest is this weekend. Full rules
are available at http://web.jzap.com/k7rat/stew.html.
There have been some questions about using the Reverse Beacon Network.
The Boring ARC has added some rules to take these into account. Here
is the part that was changed:
> 6. Prohibited activities: Use of Internet-based and/or radio-based spotting
> systems and chat rooms is not permitted for the purposes of improving
> your score, regardless of category.
>
> Remote operation is permitted as long as all transmitting and receiving
> antennas used are within 100 km of each other - with only one transmitter
> site. The grid square sent and used for scoring purposes must be the one
> that your transmitter is in.
>
> Use of skimmer like devices are permitted for the multi-operator category
> only. Any skimmer like devices (including reverse beacon network devices)
> must be located within 100 km of other devices (such as transmitters).
>
> Note - if your intended operation falls outside of these limitations, feel
> free to operate the contest as you wish - but enter the "C" category (check
> log). You can explain your operation details in the soapbox section of
> your log - which will be printed with the results.
