Hello,

any VHSC members on this reflector who plan to take part in CQWW CW?
Lets build a VHSC team to participate in the TEAM COMPETITION.
Just for the fun of it. I think this category might become interesting in the
future, but only if more people start to take part in it. You'll find the
rules in CQ 9/96.
C'mon VHSC SINGLE OPs, lets join for VHSC team #1 (maybe even  #2?)

My reasoning:
1) I don't live in Zero-land any more
2) I'm no longer going to be:
  november something x-ray?
  november six zulu x-ray?
  november six zero ... nah, that ain't right, give it to me again?
  november six oscar x-ray!

Yes... I love the idea... but one question:
How do I get your computer to send 30 WPM if I'm fresh and
22 WPM if I'm tired and punch-drunk?
And how does the computer *know*?? :-)

In the ARRL events an FCC pink slip or two OO reports toss you out.  Be
competitive, but be safe!

I do agree that a station operating on LSB within 3Khz of the band edge is
at risk.
