I have exactly the same question. Modern cities are a terrible place to try to do ham radio. I don't know of a single contest station within the city of San Francisco; AB9H and WO9S operate one of two contests from the city of Chicago. I lived and operated from a mixed residential/industrial neighborhood in Chicago, and my station was more modest than that of W3DQ. DC was a multiplier in RTTY RU, and it appears that W3DQ was the only DC station on the air.

suggestion and, who made the decision to alter the rules?

There are many who would like to know, just why the change was made.

Who will benefit?
