[CQ-Contest] Is the wpx a prefix test or dx contest?

[Jeff Clarke]

Why this is a big deal??  Comparing a M/S score to a M/M score is like comparing apples to oranges.  It’s ridiculous to consider giving 3 points for domestic QSO’s in this contest. I live in GA – probably 75 miles from NQ4I and we would have a HUGE advantage vs. the East Coast on 20 and 40 meters because of our skip zone to the highly populated USA call areas. Be thankful that the rules were changed to give points for W/K QSO’s to make the contest more fun or the difference in scores would be even greater. It used to be ZERO points. Plus NQ4I has won M/M several times so I don’t understand why he has a beef against the rules.


Maybe give some credit to Krassy and his team for a great score. K1LZ has consistently put in some great scores in M/S that have beat some of the top contenders in M2X in several contests.
