[Mldxcc] RAC Winter Contest

[K6LE - Rick]

Thanks for the heads-up Emily.

I may take a look at this event but am not crazy about this rule:

3) Single operators who receive assistance from a DX spotting system, including Skimmer and similar technologies or any type of Packet Cluster network during the contest must classify themselves as Multi-ops.

GL,

Rick
