[SCCC] Club Circle for CQ Contests

[Dennis Younker NE6I]

I've updated the map on the SCCC Territory page this afternoon to reflect
both the ARRL and CQ contest radii. That should help, keeping in mind that
the map is not 100% accurate. Using some sort of distance calculator is
probably better for borderline cases. 

To Marty's point (separate post here), San Jose falls outside the radius for
both sets of contests using the currently defined club center. If we move
the center temporarily for a CQ contest to bring in San Jose, we lose Yuma.

Hi Mike,

Looks like it. Admittedly, I haven't paid much attention to CQ club
rules/competition. The SCCC DM15dc center is optimized for ARRL contests.

I have noted that the club circle rules for CQ Contests is a 250 mile
radius. The SCCC web page says it is a 175 mile radius centered at DM15dc. I
calculated the distance for my Grid Location of DM22qr here in Yuma, AZ from
DM15dc to be 241.2 miles. Does that mean that I can submit my CQ Contest
scores for the SCCC? 

Thanks de Mike W6RW
