[WRTC2006] referees

[Marijan Miletic', S56A]

I am not sure that you might find any referee which can handle 4 audio 
channels in real time as your propossed rules enable both operators using 
SO2R techniques!

I wonder who would provide transceivers interlocking circuits?  Only YT1NT 
made significant technology contribution to the whole WRTC history.

>>> qualification of nominated referee.
>>>
>>> 2. Back-up referees list.
>>> WRTC-2010 committee will have to have a back-up referees
