[CQ-Contest] SSB Sections in SS

[Rex Maner]

Quack Note:

I've been at  SS for a long time and the   sections normally I would rather 
have Los Angeles  ,  or  Deleware ,  or West Central Florida  and  San 
Joaquin Valley, MUCH QUICKER for me,  but I've grown use to them over the 
years and lot's of  Practice.
In a lot of cases I can understand for the Little or Big Pistol where they 
would desire  the Phonetic ,  especially with

SJV,   SCV,  SAC,   LAX  , and  SDG.
