[CQ-Contest] WRTC for VK/ZL

[Yan (XV4Y)]

Hi,

I will not enter the discussion about WRTC rules as I don't plan to run for a seat in this competition.

However your stats for VK/ZL logs in the main contests are very interesting.
Particularly regarding AA DX were you (VK/ZL stations) should be able to make good scores since there might be a fairly good N-S path over water.
However, the big problem is that in most of those contests, nobody is turning its antenna to VK/ZL (or CQ zone 26 in my case), they are all chasing big points with the populated areas in EU and NA.

And yes I agree with all your comments.
I have a very nice "country winner" certificate for the 2010 ARRL 10 meter that I won with only one QSO. I might even have been the zone leader.

73,
Yan.
