[CQ-Contest] Open Letter to VE Contesters

[David Siddall]

To everyone concerned about the "Canadian Advantage":

There's no one "fighting it out up 10kHz" on 160.  You could relax and
enjoy the CQ160 Phone contest this weekend.  The spectrum allocations are
identical and although VE's generally are allowed more output power on SSB
(2250 PEP) than W's (1500 PEP), the rules remove even this tiny advantage
by limiting all competitors to 1500 PEP max.

Anyways, ENJOY the weekend.

73, Dave K3ZJ
