The Board also adopted the MSC's recommendations regarding club competition.
In accordance with the advice of the ARRL Contest Advisory Committee, five
specific changes were approved and will go into effect November 1, 2002,
when the "General Rules for All ARRL Contests" are updated for the 2002-2003
contest season. Under the revised ARRL club competition rules:

� The Board has altered the requirement that a member must attend at least
two club meetings a year in order to be allowed to submit score for a club
in the unlimited and medium categories. The new rules will allow
participation by "a member in good standing," as defined by the club. "In
part, this change recognizes that the dynamics of many clubs have changed,"
said ARRL Contest Branch Manager Dan Henderson, N1ND. "Many clubs hold
meetings on the air and on the Internet. Many clubs have large, active
participation on club e-mail reflectors." Henderson said that by allowing
clubs to define their own standard for "member in good standing," clubs can
include more operators as active participants in contesting activities.


� Medium and unlimited clubs now may define their club service area either
as a 175-mile radius circle or as an entire ARRL section. This change will
allow clubs from larger states than encompass entire ARRL sections to
compete with each other. Clubs may select one definition or the other but
not both.

� The percentage of operators who must be members of a club in order for the
club to claim a score from a multioperator station has been reduced from 66%
to 50%.

� A station owner no longer must be a member of a club in order for a guest
operator at the station to claim the score for that club.

� Canadian clubs that are full Radio Amateurs of Canada affiliates now may
participate in the ARRL Affiliated Clubs Competition.
