ПОЛНЫЙ ТЕКСТ (Eng) :
The CQ WW DX Contest rules have evolved over the years to respond to technology and other changes in contesting. The wording was not always consistent and this would lead to misunderstandings about the rules. We knew it was time to do something when the volunteers that were translating the rules into other languages could not find the right words!
The CQ WW DX Contest Committee has conducted a complete review of the rules. The goals of the project were to make the rules easier to read, easier to understand, to remove less popular items, and to add some new opportunities for competition.
The Committee is making a draft of the 2013 rules available for public preview. We ask all contesters to read the new rules and let us know if you have questions or comments. We will use this feedback to improve the words or to add to the frequently asked questions on the web site.
