[CQ-Contest] WRTC looking for a new team leader

[Gordon LaPoint]

there are other remote stations,  I use this one in VA for some multi-op 
RTTY contests.  They do CW and SSB contests also.

In addition to these large remote stations there are also many big established stations. You would be much better building up a station in your own region because there would be less competition for a spot.
> I think the rules in WRTC thru the years have been pretty consistent that they limit the scores you can count outside your home QTH. That means when guys like KL9A, N5DX and N4YDU operate remotely from New England they can only count 4 of those scores. Plus these guys go to either the Caribbean or Central America to operate as well limiting which of the scores that will count.

I believe my top four scores for the 2018 qualifying were all from PJ4A. Since I don't have much of a station at home I really didn't have much of a score to be near the top of the standings in NA #2.
