I also do a lot of the CQ WW RTTY event. I sure hope they never
change the
in country qso point value. I believe it's one reason the contest
is so popular, especially
now that the solar cycle is on its way down. BoB WA1FCN

I do a lot of RTTY contesting. Moving the biggest CW and SSB DX contests
towards the RTTY model of in-country-QSO's-count-for-points is not a good
idea.
Most RTTY contests have always allowed in-country QSO's to count for points
to drum up the rates to a level to keep it interesting for the whole
period. If RTTY becomes substantially more popular then maybe in CQWW RTTY
they could put in-country Q's at zero points (I have heard at least one
RTTY contest director wonder out loud if his contest is reaching this
tipping point yet.)
