[RTTY] cq ww rtty - off time for non-classic categories

[Jim W7RY]

The only class where you don’t operate the full 48 hours is the Classic 
overlay. That is where a breaks are minimum of 60 minutes.

For those not in Classic, then any off time is lost operating time. No 
minimum or maximum requirements.

Jim, I'm reading that 60 minute limitation as applying ONLY to the guys
claiming a classic overlay.

I'm running So2r so I will fall into the generic SO category - no overlay.
And from that, I conclude no time limit on breaks is applicable.  Meaning a
5 minute break (for example) is just fine - no need to wait 60 minutes.

No.....

Please read all of the info under section B:

B. Single Operator Overlay Categories:  Any Single Operator All Band entrant
above may ALSO submit his/her log for one of the categories shown below by
adding the appropriate CATEGORY-OVERLAY line int eh Cabrillo log file
header.  Overlay category entries will be listed separately in the results;
grouped by high power and low power.

           1.  Classic Operator (CLASSIC):  The entrant will use only one
radio, no QSO alerting assistance, and may operate up to 24 of the 48
hours -- off times are a minimum of 60 minutes during which no QSO is
logged.  If the log shows more than 24 hours of operation, only the first 24
hours will be counted for the overlay score.  The one radio must not be able
to receive while transmitting.



And Jeff AC0C... I’m wondering the same thing. Looks to me there is no limit
on how many breaks you can take... Just as long as they are at least 60
minutes.
