      Dear Friends:

  After considerable deliberation, the WRTC Committee has now changed the
way the on-site competition will be scored. On-site competitor's  logs will
now be scored exactly the same way that IARU Contest logs are scored.

  This will permit competitors to use any logging program of their
choosing, something that has been requested by a number of participants. The
only requirement will be to submit an IARU Cabrillo-compliant log.  Note
that use of callsign and/or name databases to verify callsigns is still not
permitted.

  The scoring change will eliminate the need for logging-software authors to
produce special versions of their programs that will be used for only one
event, as well as the chance that some unknown software bug may still be
present in a version that has not been subjected to extensive testing. It
will also eliminate the need for special log-checking and log-scoring
software.

  Note that the IARU rule 4.2.1. "Must remain on a band and mode for at
least 10 minutes before changing bands or modes," does not apply to the WRTC
competition. Our on-site referees will insure that only a single transmitter
is used.

  Note that multipliers will now be as defined by IARU rule 8:

  8. Multipliers: The total number of ITU zones plus IARU member society HQ
stations worked on each band (not mode). IARU officials represent a maximum
of four multipliers per band (AC, R1, R2 and R3)

  8.1. IARU member society HQ stations and officials do not count for zone
multipliers.

  8.2. To qualify as the special multiplier, Administrative Council and
Regional Executive Committee stations must only be operated by the
individual station licensee as single operator entry.

  This change should also somewhat reduce any advantage previous WRTC
competitors have over first-timers, as the IARU participation has always
been open to all amateurs.

  The WRTC 2006 Contest Rules document will be changed accordingly, and a
update will be released shortly.

  WRTC-2006 is a non-profit event put on by unpaid volunteers. We will
Continue to review our program, and may occasionally modify something to
facilitate a smooth operation with the resources that we have.

  Thank you for your understanding and support.

  73,
  Atilano de Oms PY5EG
  WRTC 2006 COMMITTEE
