I"m a bit puzzled by this; the rules say "Phone and CW (includes
digital modes in CW) are allowed." About the only mode I *do* work
from home these days is PSK-31. That's a digital mode ... but it
utilizes AF frequencies, so I'm assuming it's not allowed for the
contest. Is RTTY allowed? That WAS basically a two-frequency CW mode
originally, right? So even though most of us now use AF and a
computer soundcard, RTTY would be allowed for the Maryland contest?


The rule is somewhat ambiguous.

As I read it, it would seem that a digital entry competes (and is scored) as
a CW entry.
