[CQ-Contest] ARRL DX CW Results - Did Anyone Else Notice?

[Edward Sawyer]

IZ3EYZ was the same gentleman who operated remote illegally using a US station but not being a US licensed operator.  He used the US station callsign.  The scores were ultimately disqualified in the WRTC qualifying competition although I don't think the actual scores for the contests were changed.  It was a US call area win but not more than that.

He then went on to get a US callsign - KO1A - so that would no longer be an issue for that item, but it was after the contests in question.

For this CEPT discussion, it's a different set of rules.  And if operating as FS/KO1A was illegal because it should have been FS/IZ3EYZ then the operation should be DQ'd from the contest.

Whether it was unintentional or not, you don't let a clear violation win a contest and ignore that it was wrong.
