CQWW Contest expands recognition for Assisted categories

The SSB weekend of the CQ World Wide DX Contest is this coming weekend, and CQWW Contest Director Bob Cox, K3EST, is highlighting the expanded and strengthened award program for the Assisted categories, as of this year's running of the CQWW Contest. This applies to both the SSB and CW weekends.
 
"The CQ WW Contest Committee would like to inform you," says Cox, "that the ASSISTED CATEGORY award program has been greatly expanded." Specific changes include the following:
 
- All Low Power and QRP assisted entrants will be specifically listed and eligible for awards as is already the case for unassisted entries.
- A band-by-band breakdown for all band assisted World, Europe and USA will be provided within the 2010 results.
- Lastly, the number of plaques available to assisted entrants will be increased to include Europe Assisted All Band and all World Assisted Single Bands.
 
"We hope that this action provides an incentive for entrants using a QSO spotting system to join the assisted category," Cox explains.
 
K3EST also reminds CQWW participants that the log submission deadlines have been changed. SSB logs must be submitted by Nov. 21, 2010 and CW logs by Dec. 21, 2010.
