[UK-CONTEST] Proposal for change to rule for UKAC's for 2013

[STEVE JONES]

The proposed new multiplyer rule will disadvantage those stations furthest from the continent if uk dxcc countries do not count, thus discouraging participation from the north of GM, north west of G, and west Wales.  My vote would be with the status quo.

It'll disadvantage those of us for whom the M5 rule was an advantage. I'll
throw my toys out of the pram if it happens!

Hi,

The latest 6M UKAC results are out and reading the intro' this appears. I'm
making no comment either way and if you do have a comment please address it
to the email address below. This is just to give the notice more exposure as
some contestants don't do all bands in UKAC, but this will affect all.

"POTENTIAL RULE CHANGE FOR 2013.  The UKAC series of contests has been a
great success and the M5 multiplier system has played a significant part in
that success in encouraging entrants to hunt down stations in all corners of
the UK. As part of the continuing evolution of the event the contest
committee is proposing a small change to the multiplier system used in all
UKACs for 2013.  The new multiplier system (M6) will be the sum of the UK
squares plus the number of non-UK countries worked.  Comments on this
proposal are welcome and should be emailed to vhf.query at rsgbcc.org"
