[CQ-Contest] Why some Caribbean Islands compete as South America atCQWW and other contests

[Igor Sokolov]

Fernando,
What I am trying to convey is that the only more or less level ground in ham 
radio contests is possible when all the competitors are on the same field 
with the same power and similar antennas. WRTC was invented in order to 
compare operators skill and not their antennas power or their permanent 
locations. Other contests are just for training and selection of the best 
ops to go to WRTC.

Hello Igor, good evening!

Thanks for sharing your opinion.

Due to this reason I inserted other parts of the world on my text and taking 
into consideration the places you mentioned, we see how critical the rules 
could be for this countries, worst than here.

So, for you, there is no possibilities or changes to turn more equal the 
competition, right?

Supposing we are a very excelent operator, the rest is only money, right?

Thanks again for sharing.
