The organisation of the IARU contests has been changed during the IARU General Conference in Landshut (2017).
It is proposed to create a team of experienced VHF contesters and contest robot owners/designers to define common checking rules for automatic contest adjudication applications.

The Working Group consists of:

• C5 Contest Coordinator
• C5 Chair
• Members shall be active contesters. Of the ordinary members, at least one needs to be:
  o Robot/IT expert
  o VHF/UHF specialist
  o Microwave specialist

Actual membership

• C5 Contest Coordinator : IV3KKW
• C5 Chair: OM3BH
• Members: DL3MBG, F4CIB, G0FCT, HA0LC, OE1MCU, OK1VAO, PE1ITR, S53WW, YU1LA.
