Hi contesters! It may be a little bit early to ask about WRTC 2022 when 2018 has not yet been concluded. I am relatively new to contesting but I have been attracted by it. With remote contesting as a

Wasnt it announced that it is being done in Italy in 2022? 73 Rich NN3W We all hope some group will step forward to organize the next WRTC. It is a great exhibition of the sport of contesting. Randy
Kari, Since you have your own Flex remote station, there should be no problem operating from your bedroom using your iPad while your wife sleeps -- at least on CW. I remember our meeting at F'hvn las
Id also like to try for a spot in 2022. Pulling out all the stops including station improvements. _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list CQ-Contest@contesting.com htt

Hi Dave, I remember too. It was nice. I am not going as I am setting up some new antennas 4 on 40 m and 2 x 5 on 20 m. You know we SM (and LA:s as well) hams are so equal in marriage that after this
In the spirit of Olympics I would like the rules to prescribe that each geographic team must consist only of individuals from the designated geographic region. 73, de Hans, K0HB Just a Boy and his Ra
Absolutely! Even tho the Olympics have already screwed that up. It's like the rules now go by their Ancestry DNA Pie chart, like this one. It says I can compete as an Italian. Sorry Nope. to compete

Agreed. You operate in the East Coast US district, your scores from east coast US locations count toward qualifying as a East Coast rep.. Your partner is an east Coast US op. You operate in Western E

It would be really nice to see WRTC contributing to Fair Play in our hobby. Ideally WRTC qualifying would be on-site regional competitions during the three IARU contests prior to the next WRTC. RRTC
Hi Martin, Interesting. But here in Scandinavia we are so few hams (active contesters I guess some 15-20 persons at maximum) that we could not do any of this pre-qualification runs as I see the Russi
I agree fully to this. But that would also apply for remote contesters. You do remoting and sit in a chair in in W6 and have the remote station in W1 would mean W1 as your operating location. Otherwi
Hi Kari, Not a problem. Regional events. No need to conduct those in your own area. It could be part of a larger area. All the teams willing to be part of the qualifying run would pay their own expen
I indeed like the idea - and have proposed the same. In general, no need to use three years to determine who are the deserving operators... This can be decided in fewer events 1-2. Kari, Sweden has a
Kari, what prevents you from organizing this pre-qualification runs for these 15-20 persons? Here on Urals (UA9) we have about the same number of active contesters and do it every year for the last 1
Hi Igor, Thank you for the input. Very kind of you to help out. I appreciate it. You say "What prevents you from organization this pre-qualification runs.?" When I started in ham radio 1973 we were s
Kari, The situation with decreasing number of active contesters is pretty universal. Anyway organizing local event similar to WRTC is not that difficult. We have started doing it in 1999. Then few ye
