[CQ-Contest] Short calls-the solution

[Mike Gilmer, N2MG]

This is the first "valid" argument (IMO) for going with the 1X1 call.  
With seemingly all the "good" KH2 calls being taken by people who are 
NOT on Guam, I suppose that was the best choice.  Too bad.  It still 
stinks.

BTW, the ops were apparently 3 JAs.  http://www.cpcug.org/user/wfeidt/Misc/cqc2002.html

I guess they didn't want to operate as KH2/7M4KRX  ;-)
