[CQ-Contest] cqww etiquette

[Julius Fazekas]

I'll second that... well except the MM. If I'm just calling into the ethereal void, am happy to hand out the country/zone/whatever.

Worked a number of US on all bands. The only disappointment was not working one of the gazillion US Zone 3 stations heard on 10 **sigh** No VEs heard either, had some small hopes of working one of the VE7s. 10 was a blast otherwise!
