Hi Ed,
Thanks for reply.

I thought WPX was 36 hours, why 30 in RTTY part? It was good I checked the
rules twice ;)


I don't hope the Aurora hits the band in north this weekend as predicted.

Yes, or start late and/or stop early ... or some combination of the two.
All QSOs beyond the first 30 hours of operating time will be ignored in the
score calculation.  If you operate more than 30 hours, leave all QSOs in the
log so they can be used for cross-checking and don't create NILs for other
stations.  Off-time taken in the middle of your 30 hours operation must be a
minimum of 60 minutes.
