Russian and Belarusian stations in CQ WW contests

As you may know, the decision of CQ magazine for more than two years excludes the possibility of receiving awards for stations from Russia and Belarus in all competitions, which CQ sponsors. This ruling is not part of the rules for any of the CQ WW contests, but only in the form of a statement- The most notable at the moment is, that CQ WW contests are one of the few, which still maintain this position (or similar). Based on that, and in consultation with our CQ WW contest directors and WWROF leadership, we will change this restriction immediately and return all our contests as open to all.

This change will take effect this weekend during CQ WW RTTY conest-u (28.-29. september 2024) and will also apply to all other CQ WW competitions.
