In the early days of this contest, WPX RTTY was not sponsored by CQ Magazine.
I'm not 100% sure, but I believe the ADRS (American Digital Radio Society) was
the first sponsor. Then later, the RTTY Journal became the sponsor along with
CQ and it was called the CQRJ WPX RTTY Contest. When the RTTY Journal closed
down, then CQ because the sole sponsor and this was just a few years ago.
WriteLog never changed the name of the module, and thus this is why CQ is not
part of the module name.
