[CQ-Contest] Classic, etcetera

[Randy Thompson K5ZD]

Clarification...

In CQWW, the Classic and Rookie categories are called Overlay categories.
This means they are in parallel to the traditional categories.  There is no
need to make a decision of whether to submit as SOAB or Classic.  You would
submit your normal log and also indicate the Classic overlay.  The log would
then have two scores in the results - the traditional one and the Classic
overlay score.
