[CQ-Contest] The best op

Now that's an interesting question...I recall two.

Claudia Wulz, HB9CUY, was a member of the French team for WRTC-90 and is
quite a good CW op.  Also a high-energy physicist at CERN.  Haven't heard
her on for ages - must be all those Top Quarks under the Alps.

Laura, WE7B, was tearing it up on phone in the early nineties (and I think
her sister is/was licensed, as well) but has been inactive contest-wise for
a long time.

I used the Heil headsets that surround the ear at W6EEN for a
multi-single and a multi-two phone contest (with boom mic.), getting
in about 30 hours out of the 48 of personal on-time and I was
pleasantly disposed to them.  I think I may purchase one or two pairs
for home use.
