[UK-CONTEST] Commonwealth Contest

[Dave Lawley]

Rob

I did answer the question! The scoring would be distorted and it would 
turn into a domestic contest. If you read G3PJT's excellent book you'll 
see that G6CJ devised the scoring scheme in the 70s and it has stood the 
test of time. As Roger also pointed out, inter-UK QSOs would be in 
conflict with the idea of a DX contest.

It is a diversion, but I have always been intrigued by why G GM GW and 
GI have historically been considered separate DXCC countries. You have 
answered with the same 'unsatisfactory' answer you accuse me of giving 
re Beru - because it's always been like that.
