[CQ-Contest] CQ WW Update

[w5ov at w5ov.com]

Dave,

The pertinent part is:

3. All transmitters and receivers used
by the entrant must be located within a
single 500-meter diameter circle or within
the property limits of the station
licensee’s address, whichever is greater.

4. All antennas used by the entrant must
be physically connected by wires to the
transmitters and receivers used by the
entrant.

No remote anything is permitted by the above.
