Thanks for the update Jay, Yeah, if I was thinking properly (getting harder
every day), I don't think the contest would have been called the "CQ World
Wide" before CQ actually picked it up! As I mentioned, I don't have any
magazines so my recollection is strictly from memory. Thanks for all the
sources (links). I didn't realize the RTTY Journal was available on the CD
set.

No doubt there will be many more answers. However the CQWW RTTY started in
1987 and has always been
on the last full weekend of September.
CQ and the RTTY Journal were the co-sponsers until the demise of the RTTY
Journal. All of the results are available in the RTTY Journal.
Contact Wayne, K7WM who sells the entire CD collection of the RTTY Journal.
You can find it at: http://www.ewarg.org/rjcdroms/index.htm
Wayne is the only authorized distribution of the RTTY Journal CD's. Don,
AA5AU most likely has all of the results as through the years I have sent
him all
of my data which included many years of results. I know he just recently
did a writeup in NCJ on the history of the CQWW.
BTW, CQWPX RTTY results are on http://www.cqwpxrtty.com/results.htm as
well as they have been submitted to the http://www.kkn.net/~k5tr/scoredb/
Randy K5ZD posted all wpx rtty results since the beginning to
http://www.cqwpxrtty.com/index.html
There are also BARTG results on the ScoreDB as well as all RTTY Roundup
results. I do have all WW WPX results as well as all RTTY Roundup Results.
I no longer have any CQWW RTTY Results as I sent those to Don.
