Here is a reminder that this week's CWTs will be slow-speed (20 WPM or
less, please) to welcome the latest graduating class from the CWops CW
Academy. Graduates, profs and alumni may be sending CWA in the exchange in
place of the usual CWops#/S/P/C. There may also be some xxCWO club call
signs on the air to look for.
The exchange is your name and state/province/country if you are not a CWops
member, name and number if you are a member. CWTs are held every Wednesday
at 1300Z, 1900Z and 0300Z, and last for one hour each (three separate
sessions each Wednesday). On 40m, most of the action is between 7028 and
7044 kHz or so, similarly for other bands. Scoring: one point per QSO, one
multiplier point per call sign worked (once per contest - so if you work
the same station on two bands, you get two QSO points but only one
multiplier point for that call sign). In N1MM+, the contest log type is
CWOPS. See <https://cwops.org/cwops-tests/> .
There is no log submission or log checking - just report your claimed score
at 3830scores.com (thanks, Bruce!).
Claimed scores will be lower than usual this week because of the slower CW
speed, but this is an opportunity to log some new-to-you call signs
instead. Everyone is welcome; come on and join the fun!

CWT Manager
