[CQ-Contest] Correction WRTC2018 Team Selection Criteria

[XV4Y (Yan)]

Chris,

I was too fast answering you and did not take the time to verify your claim.
It seems that you misread the rules.
The Asian stations (including Japan) can still enter QRP/LP/HP, that's the non-Asian (Europe, USA, Oceania) that are all blended in one single power category.
You should then check that the WRTC rules clearly make the difference between Asia (not JA-only) and other continents.

2015 rules (no signs of 2016 rules).

73,
Yan.

> Hi all,
> 
> I have to inform you that the WRTC2018 Team Selection Criteria were updated. The JARL, sponsor of the All Asian DX Contest, changed their contest rules as follows:
> 
> There are no more Single Operator Low Power categories for stations outside Japan.
> 
> All Single Operators (High and Low Power, Single Band and All Band) outside Japan will compete in one qualification category. All Single Operators from Japan will still compete separated in High and Low Power categories.
