[CQ-Contest] Upcoming: 57th Worked All Europe DX Contest (WAEDC) CW

[Marijan Miletic, S56A]

Off times WAEDC rule: If operation is interrupted for more than 12 hours the three longest off time periods must be a minimum of 12 hours.

I operate WAE since 1962 and never cared much about off times as I asumed that 36 hours permission counts.  Sometimes I start on Saturday morning daylight which might even involve 13 hours interruption.  According to the English rule above, I'd have to take up to 3 another pauses totaling minimum 12 hours.  I got a feeling that you made poor translation from more complex DL language.  Why further limit participation?
