[CQ-Contest] Improving scores, etc.

["Mark Steven Williams" <k9gx@n4gn.com>]

While there's nothing quite like having an Elmer in the neighborhood, being 
invited to operate or observe at a "serious" M/M or M/S, visiting a 
super-station like W3LPL or N4AR or going through the "growing pains" of 
building a competitive station as I've had the pleasure of doing with N4GN, 
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the PVRC's excellent contesting seminars 
on DVD.

IMHO every contester should have a copy of these excellent programs on 
his/her bookshelf right next to the ARRL Operating Manual and Handbook, the 
writings of W9KNI, ON4UN and others and the NCJ.

73,
