Hi Pete,

You really touched EU nerve :-)  You popularity seems to be very high with 
CW Skimmer.  I might save you soon with CW Expert robot.

Your propossal about 4 hours EU RTTY type test in CW mode is interesting but 
too short for DX run.
K3BU is trying for a long time to promote Tesla contest fairly based on 
distance calculations.
http://www.teslaradio.org/rules.htm is structered along WRTC rules but 
colides with CQ WW RTTY.

Somehow I thought that John hates me by sending QTCs over 40 wpm.  I am 
still not sure about K1DG who does the same.
