The following was posted today on the CQ Contest email reflector:
I think recognizing that a Multi/SINGLE category should be just that -- a SINGLE transmitter, no more "multiplier hunting" extra stations -- is long overdue. Already, as should be expected, there is major flack about the change, for a number of reasons. Including one from our "friend" N2IC who has already announced that he plans to use transmitter lockouts to avoid the intent (if not the strict letter) of the rules of the new category.Originally Posted by Randy Thompson K5ZD
My personal opinion aside... this is a chance for those who are NOT on the contest reflector to make whatever comments they wish, pro or con. If the only solicited input is from those on the reflector, which involves a lot of active contesters (some of whom are, to put it charitably, ethically challenged), then the input is biased.
So if you have an opinion, pro or con, please review the change(s) and then contact Randy. This is a rare opportunity... don't miss it.
