Hi folks,
the upcoming WPX SSB contest (March 24-25 2018) will fill the band with
thousands of contest calls. Among the crowd there will be a number of
the larger WRTC team.
What do we mean by larger WRTC team? WRTC is not only an event for the
126 active competitors. There are also 63 referees performing the hard
job of observing 2 channels of high speed qso traffic for 24 hours.
Beside this there are more than 300 volunteers working in support roles.
They will support the WRTC with nearly a week of their own time to set
up and support the 63 operating sites south of Berlin. Many of the
volunteers are also contesters and will be taking part in the WPX contest.
For you to identify these volunteers we have provided an XDT-File for
wintest with the names and VOTA numbers of the volunteers. The VOTA
number exculsively identifies a WRTC 2018 volunteer and is valid for the
VOTA Award (http://wrtc2018.de/index.php/en/activities/wwqr-award-me).
It consists of a Prefix and a running number. For instance Dave, K3ZJ,
will give out K-001 and Manfred DK2OY, DL-016.
The wrtc.xdt file also contains the calls and names of all competitors
and referees. Please import the file into your contest logging program
and give the WRTC TEAM a short “GO WRTC” to motivate them for the very
special event coming up in summer 2018.
