DL - One More Year ?

Associations
1

Dear MT,

not sure if there is a real chance but will try:

Have focused last year on the DL-Summits which will be deleted, could activate 31, but still >40 are open (from the ‚reachable for me‘ subset).

Would it be possible to prolong the transition time by one more year ?

Expect other activators will appreciate it and chasers too…

Thanks and BR

There is a well established way to send a message to the MT which ensures that they see it. A post on the reflector is unreliable, it may or may not be seen by the MT.

I have activated every summit in G (England). Except that I haven’t. There’s five references that were deleted before I ever got to them due to them being found not to qualify.

It would be nice if they could be revalidated for a short period so I could visit them … but it would not be right.

Concessions have already been made with regard to the DL P100 summits. These are:

  • They have remained valid for many years since the formalisation of the objective summit criteria rule.
  • A long notice period was given to allow more activations before deletion.

Extending that notice period by one year would not be reasonable as then every association with non-compliant summits would expect the same.

BTW I have 3 P100 summits very close to my home QTH. They have never been valid for SOTA but I still enjoy walking on them. Sometimes I even take my radio! You can do the same in DL, and still log the activations in the GMA scheme.
