"Call areas are not used as multipliers in any contest of which I am aware.
73, Bob N7XY "
Bob, that's not quite right, e.g. in the WAEDC-Contest you'll find this
rule:
6 Multiplier:
...
For European stations every non-European DXCC entity counts as a multiplier.
Exception: In the following countries up to ten call areas count as
multipliers:
W, VE, VK, ZL, ZS, JA, PY and RA8/RA9 and RAØ -- without respect to the
geographic location.
Examples: W1, K1, KA1 and K3../1 count as W1; VE1, VO1 und VY1 count as VE1;
JR4, 7M4 und 7K4 count as JA4; ZL2 and ZL6 are two different multipliers.
