[Cwo] Awards

[Jim Talens]

In major contests, like CQWW, do the LP and QRP winners get the same kind of
award as the overall winner?

I think we should revisit the award situation with regard to the trophies
and plaques.

 

As things stand now, the highest score (which will always be the high power
category) gets the trophy.  High score in each power level gets a plaque.

 

For combined, it's high score for all three sessions (which will always be
the high power category) gets the trophy, highest score at each power level
gets a plaque.

 

I don't know what the cost of the trophies vs. plaques is but it seems to me
that we are putting way too much emphasis on the high power category.  It
also makes the low power and QRP sections second class citizens in that they
only will get a plaque whereas the high power guy gets the trophy.

 

I would prefer to see equal awards for each category, regardless if they are
trophies or plaques.

 

Perhaps we give a plaque to the winners of each section and a trophy to the
overall total winner in each section.  Something to consider.
