As many of you know, the CWOps club sponsors weekly CW mini-tests 
(CWTs), at 1300Z and 1900Z Wednesdays and 0300Z Thursdays 
(<http://www.cwops.org/cwt.html>).

The CWOps club also sponsors a CW training program called CW Academy 
(<http://www.cwops.org/cwacademy.html>), with three sessions a year, 
ending in March, June and November. On the occasions of those 
graduations, we vary the routine of the CWTs slightly. In the second 
week of March, June and November, everyone taking part in the CWTs is 
asked to keep their CW speed down to 20 wpm or less in order to welcome 
new graduates who are not yet ready to cope with the usual higher CW 
speeds. Also, past and present students and advisors are asked to send 
CWA in place of the usual membership number or state/province/country 
code in the exchange.

Everyone is always welcome to join in. This week, though, please 
moderate your CW speed in order to make it more fun and less stressful 
for the new CW Academy graduates.

Time: March 9, 1300-1400Z; 1900-2000Z; and March 10, 0300-0400Z.
Frequencies: approx. 28 kHz above the bottom of the band and upwards
Exchange: Name plus CWOps membership number, "CWA", or state, province 
or country code
Logs: No log submission, just report your results at 3830scores.com

Thanks, and CU in the CWTs.

73,
Rich VE3KI
CWOps CWT manager
