CQ WW Update
The CQ WW Contest Committee would like to issue a clarification *to
part 4*from our last update (November 23, 2010).
*This clarification replaces the recently issued CQ WW Update part 4.*
*
*
Technology is advancing very rapidly. The CQ WW Contest Committee wants to
make it clear about the use of Skimmer.
A. The use of a personal skimmer located within the distance rule
limitations (500m circle) of your QTH is *OK for all Multi-op and Assisted
categories.
*
B. The use of a *public *skimmer, *public* skimmer network,
*public*aggregator or the RBN is
*OK for all Multi-op and Assisted categories.
*
C. The use of a *PRIVATE *skimmer or *PRIVATE *skimmer network is *NOT
allowed (outside the 500m circle) for any category.
*
*
*
D. Remote receivers (including Internet-based SDRs,) which are
outside the 500m station circle, are *not permitted (strictly forbidden) for
ANY category.*
*
*
*We realize the words public and private are vague. The intent is that any
QSO spotting network outside of the 500m circle be available for anyone to
use. *
