Randy, thanks to you et al for listening and assessing all the commentary.
I still have a few nits that I will add.

 

Frequency - I think you need to clarify "frequency" a bit more carefully.
The current wording of "actual frequency" could be defined as just band
info, e.g. "14" or "21".  How about making it "actual frequency plus or
minus 1 KHz".?

 

QSO Alerting Assistance - I think the intent is to allow SCP, lists, etc.
Why not call those "passive" assistance and allow their use specifically?

 

Recording - I have nothing against recording the contest, just want to be
sure there is an easy way of doing so and not making the requests after the
fact.  

 

Club scores different from listed score - For some time there has been a
system in place in CQWW that allows an operator to submit a score for the
club score that is different than the one submitted for awards purposes.
For example, I could submit an entry for SO20 for Award purposes but submit
SOAB for the club score.  The result is obviously to increase the club
score.  I am not sure how many people are aware of this nor have I seen it
spelled out anywhere.  

 

Club mileage - I think 250 miles should solve the problem of people not
being within a circle somewhere.  Now, we can all belong somewhere.  Now,
how about the ability to submit the same score to clubs in different
categories?

 

73,

Dennis, K2SX
