[CQ-Contest] A DX Contest on the WARC bands -- A terrible idea

[donovanf at erols.com]

Hi Chuck, 


Much to the credit of SEDXA's leadership, they amended their 
September "100 Watts and Wires DX Contest" rules to bring 
them into alignment with long standing amateur practice to 
not conduct contests in the 30, 17 and 12 meter bands.

As of right now, it does not mention WARC bands at all:

Perhaps they have changed it.

The URL for the Southeast DX Club's badly thought out DX 
contest rules that include contesting in the WARC bands is:

I urge you to immediately state your objections to the SEDXC 
club president at: c.catledge at gmail.com 


Hopefully this very well respected DX club (at least until now) 
will correct their egregious error before Sept 1st. 


If no correction is made, all self respecting contesters should 
boycott this contest in protest.
