[UK-CONTEST] General Rules

[Rob Harrison]

Hi Ray,

Seem to remember quite a few years ago the /A suffix was done away with and 
there was only fixed & /P. However this seems to be blurred, as stations are 
using /A and as you say the licence doesn't seem to say otherwise. It was 
probably administrive, rather than operational. Can anyone clarify this?
