Hi Tree and all,

since dear friend Jesus has difficult to type the 
name of Italy and ARI, I do for him.

ARI like our Japanese friends of JARL
is "violating" the 4.3.3. rule since many years
and we also have never been notified.
In Italy we have restrictions in callsign assignement
and we have to strictly be compliant with Call Areas.
This is the list of the Station Callsign
we will use in the next IARU HF Championship

160 CW IO4HQ
160SSB IO4HQ
80 CW IO1HQ
80SSB IO4HQ
40 CW IO1HQ
40SSB IO4HQ
20 CW IO5HQ
20SSB IO1HQ
15 CW IO9HQ
15SSB IO8HQ
10 CW IO9HQ
10SSB IO9HQ


Maybe it is time to rethink that rule which intent
has nothing to do with the multiplier count.

I wish a very good contest to all and have fun!

this rule.  You must use the same call in a band and TWO MODES (SSB/CW).

>"4.3.3. Only one HQ station callsign per member society per frequency band
is 
permitted." The rules can be found here: 
http://www.arrl.org/iaru-hf-championship I would interpret a "frequency band" 
as being all of 10 meters for example. This is likely the case because of the 
way the multiplier rule is worded: "Multipliers: The total number of ITU zones 
plus IARU member society HQ 
stations worked on each band (not mode)." In the case above - I am sure the 
intent of the rules would not have been
to count LR1D and LR2H as two multpliers in the contest.   Tree N6TR
