[CQ-Contest] CQ WW High Rates

[ve4xt at mymts.net]

We get it. We totally get it and we think this is ultracool to watch. At least I did.

Fascinating. To us. I just hope nobody shares this video with non-cons as a way to highlight how much fun contesting can be. Without the audio, and to the uninitiated, Dan could look like an actuary frantically filling in actuarial tables. I don't think a non-ham or non-con would see this as fun. (Where are the explosions? How many respawns do you get?)

This is the kind of video that should be reserved for only those contesters at or beyond Operating Thetan III levels!

Way to go, Dan. It's impressive how calmly you can bang off nearly eight Qs per minute. 

73, kelly
