Art, it's this kind of mentality that keeps non-contesters
PO'ed at us contesters. I have found that the 10-10 group
is very courteous for the most part, and they are ALWAYS
on 10 meters keeping the band occupied, and they help run 
off pirate stations, which seem to be showing up more 
frequently . I have also heard some good CW ops exchanging 
10x numbers......

PS: I'll give you my 10-10 number next time I hear ya on, Art :)

Does anybody know where CQ comes from. Is it abbreviation of something like
See Queue (Que - American version)?
Just curious...
