[UK-CONTEST] Fwd: RSGB HF Championship 2011 Rules

[Chairman, RSGB Contest Committee]

Hello Dave,

Yes, there will be several sections in the First 160m, Commonwealth, 
BARTG HF and IOTA contests.  This means that there will be several 
sections in which you can gain Qualifying Points towards your final 
total.  In fact, this has been the case for several years, but with the 
addition of more and a greater variety of contests this year in the HF 
Championship,. the Committee thought it would be a good idea to spell 
out exactly how the system will work.

The full table will be published on the web site in the next few days -- 
at the moment you will see just the qualifying contests.  The more 
detailed table that you saw turned out to be ambiguous, and we are 
rewording it so that contesters know exactly where they stand.  Then 
they will be able to work out which contests and sections will maximise 
their points totals.and fit in with their contesting schedule for the year.

73,

Ed Taylor, GW3SQX
Chairman, RSGB Contest Committee
