[CQ-Contest] Maximum allowed power. Was: RDXC Entry Reclassified to High Power

[Bob Kupps]

The power limit in Thailand is 200 watts. I can assure you that NO ONE in this country competing in the HP category in any contest has EVER limited themselves to that level. And I personally have no problem with that because we are competing fairly with each other and within the contest HP limit. The one rule of some contests (not the CQ WW I am happy to see) I could break with a clean conscience. And I suspect most HP contesters practice this way too....but the replies will no doubt be interesting!73 Bob HS0ZIA

===========================================
I have a hard time believing that those stations in Cyprus are running 
only 400
watts. Just like the Italians claiming to be running 300 watts and some 
of the
other European countries claiming 400 watts.

I know for a fact that if you operate from a country with power limits that
exceptions can be made if you know the right people in government. Many 
years
ago I operated in a country that had a lower power limit and we were 
allowed to
run a KW during a contest.
