[CQ-Contest] You gotta let me know, should M/M Distributed stay or go.

[Hans Brakob]

I’d like to see it disappear.  It actually diminishes the number of available workable stations.

Good question Steve!

If I recall, the category was first adopted by ARRL and then later by CQ WPX.  Not sure that it's continuation has anything to do with RHR...

I don't see much downside for it to continue.  It will likely be a niche category that let's people try new things and get people on the air.  It won't necessarily increase the number of callsigns available to work, but it does create new opportunities for experimentation and training.

We're now a few days past what is likely the last COVID affected contest.  What do y'all think should or will happen with M/M Distributed.  Designated as a one time COVID exception, I can see this as the major confrontation between the pro and anti RHR camps.  Thoughts?73Steve KL7SB _______________________________________________
