Amazing that anyone has figured out how to write or talk, given how complex the spelling and pronunciation rules are!
For those who read contesting forums because they enjoy operating in contests:
The main rules for this contest say: "DX stations: Work as many W/VE stations in as many of the 48 contiguous states and provinces as possible." This pretty much answers the question about AK, HI, KP2, KP4, etc.
But, the full rules only explicitly state: " DX stations may only contact W/VE stations.
Hawaii (KH6), Alaska (KL7), St. Paul Is. (CY9), and Sable Is. (CYØ) stations participate as DX stations."
This explicitly addresses those four places but not KP4/KP2 type territories.
I have forwarded this issue to the ARRL Contest Advisory Committee to try to get it elaborated on in the rules for future contests.
