[CQ-Contest] TQP vs CQ RTTY

[Randy Thompson]

The CQWW RTTY Contest has truly become a major event on par with the Phone
and CW versions.  Activity is growing every year.

I suggest the TQP think about moving to a different weekend!  I would love
to work them, but the RTTY contest is more fun.

Randy, K5ZD
