[CQ-Contest] Fw: [RRDXA] E73M - I have cheated

Bob,

While what you say is true, back in the paper log days we would all sign a summary sheet that included a statement like "I have observed all competition rulesas well as all regulations for Amateur Radio in my country." A Portugese operator is much more likely to identify a violation of "regulations for Amateur Radio" in his own country than anyone outside Portugal. I would hope that contest committees would pay attention to these kind of reports.

Francisco,While I am certain that the ARRL told you that the internal CT licensingissue you raised was something they could not do anything about, I am evenmore certain that they did not tell you that "they couldn't care less". I believe the "couldn't care less" is your biased interpretation of the factthat the ARRL has no influence over Portuguese licensing issues.73,Bob W5OV-----Original Message-----From: cq-contest-bounces at contesting.com[mailto:cq-contest-bounces at contesting.com] On Behalf Of Francisco Costa,CT1EATSent: Sunday, August 21, 2011 4:31 PMTo: k5zd at charter.net; cq-contest at contesting.comSubject: Re: [CQ-Contest] Fw: [RRDXA] E73M - I have cheatedHi Randy> The best way to help is to report your suspicions, or> better, to provide evidence.

For the fisrt time I made a complain to a contest sponsor. I couldn't belive when I read the reply. They simply said that was an internal CT issue, and they couldn't care less. That was my 1st, only and last complain.In case you are wondering, the contest sponsor was ARRL.73 F.Costa, CT1EAThttp://ct1eat.no.sapo.pt_______________________________________________CQ-Contest mailing listCQ-Contest at contesting.comhttp://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/cq-contest_______________________________________________CQ-Contest mailing listCQ-Contest at contesting.comhttp://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/cq-contest
