[CQ-Contest] Suggestion - don't make stateside to stateside QSOs during t...

[Ktfrog007 at aol.com]

My CQ WW policy is to work zones 3, 4 and 5 by Canadian QSOs if  possible.  
That leaves one USA contact per band and I do that toward the  end of the 
contest and not during EU or JA openings.  I'll call  someone who's not 
getting any answers to their CQs.  I listen a bit first  to make sure of that.  
 
I do a lot of single band entries, so this brings it down to one QSO per  
contest.  
 
Following these rules, I work K1LZ every once in a while.

While  nobody likes the 0 pointers, they are a necessary evil.
What isn't  necessary is calling fellow stateside stations during the 
maximum rate  hours, i.e., when the band is open to Europe.
