[VHFcontesting] Rule Change Discussion

[Bob Naumann - W5OV]

I have given some thought to some possible rule changes to address the
issues discussed here.

I am not intending for what I have written to be considered as anything more
than a beginning of a discussion.  So, don't react as if these *are* the new
rules.  They are not.

My goals are:

1) Retain all current activities (no one needs to change what they have been
doing)
2) Provide an incentive for captive and team rovers to work others (might be
a good change in practice - but not forced)
3) Create new categories for captives and team rovers to compete in (long
overdue)
4) Allow independent rovers to once again compete with similar independent
stations (also long overdue)

The division of scores between multi's is probably a little troublesome, but
I think some more collective thought will yield a solution.

Please take a look and let me know what you think, or if you have better
ideas.
