The new UKAC multiplier rules will make some interesting changes and bring
a fresh approach to Tuesday evenings. However, what is most disappointing
is that the contest committee has not seen fit to alter the grossly unfair
scoring in VHF NFD. Fair enough to limit the operating periods on 4m and 6m
but it is quite wrong that operators working on 23 cms, who are relatively
few anyway, have to spend 24 hours to amass a possible 1000 pts whereas
those choosing to operate 6m and 4m have only to operate 6m for 8 hours,
go home for a night's sleep, flick the switch on their transverters and
operate 4m for 6 hours to amass a possible 2000 pts. It is 23 cm that needs
the incentive not either 4m or 6m where plenty of stations are active..
Happy hunting - from Peter Tribe G0VVE
