Information from Bud Trench, AA3B.
QSO alerting systems will now be permitted in all CQ WW WPX SSB and CW Single Operator categories, except the Single Operator Classic Overlay categories. This change also results in elimination of the requirement for audio recordings. The drivers for combining the Single Op Assisted and Unassisted categories include:
The Single Operator Classic Overlay categories will continue to prohibit the use of QSO alerting systems and should be considered by participants preferring to be unassisted. Also, the maximum operating time for Single Operator Classic Overlay participants has been reduced from 36 to 24 hours.
Further, the Multi-Operator Single Transmitter High and Low Power Classic Overlay categories have been removed from the rules.
