« +WAE…»- So?
Does DARC allow remote receivers within 100 km to be used? And allows such QSO
to be claimed towards achieving WAE award?
What if the operator used remote receiver to make a QSO on 80 or 160 m, and
then he applies such QSO towards award? Will it count?
What about others, who don’t use remote receivers? Are they “in the same boat”
with remote operators in order to get the award? I often hear West Coast
stations using remote site from New England without even signing portable. Will
those QSO’s be O.K. with ARRL for DXCC credit? Must be nice to work some rare
Pacific countries on 160 from CA and then work EU and AF countries from Maine
and get excellent Topband DXCC standing! What’s ARRL’s policy on that?
In my HUMBLE opinion (I’m in no way an expert like most people on this
reflector) the contest rules must be in line with the award rules, or such
contest QSO’s shouldn’t be counted towards the respected awards.

The country multipliers for the CQWW 160 contest (and DX contest) are based on
DXCC + WAE countries.
