It doesn't say that in the rules... It says no communications over 150 miles.... Does not say "contest" or contacts, it says communications... If you are just taking numbers down, it's not illegal...
LOL, J/K, Kthanxbye!
But you did say contest:

I say we start it back up, what do you guys think? What happened to the guy running the show? I remember some drama way back..... I started a business and got married, now things finally settling down to where I can jack with the radios again, I still have my CDX Contest Winner clock hanging in my shop, still works too.... Too bad the CDX club doesn't work anymore... I would definately participate again, I really enjoyed the contests.
I was being sarcastic but you're playing naive. FCC rules state 155.3 miles so anything further than that is an illegal transmission in the 11 meter band.
