[CQ-Contest] NAQP name handicap experiment

This thread reminds me of a SSB NAQP about 10 or so years ago. Who was the
sum-of-a-meech who was using the name Rumpelstilzchen? I ain't a kidding
you. I doubt he won the contest, but I have a feeling he frequents these
hallowed chambers.

I used 'Ed' in last weekends test from WC7CW because I have a brother-in-law
with that name and it's payback time. My QSL address for this test only is:
Ed Bumgardner/100 Vixen Ln....... Oh forget it, I guess I won't do that to
him, just yet. I'll wait for sweepstakes.

Matt--K7BG (possibly using the name "Zeitgeist" if I happen to get on in
this weekends Q party).

Yes.  Having (and using) an unusual name in the NAQP is a frustrating
handicap.

I can almost hear the backspace key strokes the other guy is hitting during
the silence following each time I send <blake>.
