[CQ-Contest] Slow-speed CWTs this week

[Richard Ferch]

This 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 will also be several xxCWO club call
signs on the air to look for.

For those of you who have just switched to Daylight Saving Time, remember
that the CWTs will be one hour later local time: 1300-1400Z Wednesday,
1900-2000Z Wednesday and 0300-0400Z Thursday (Wednesday evening in North
America).

Unlike the Russian DX contest where both stations have to log the contact
correctly for either of them to get credit, or most typical contests where
you have to log the contact correctly to get credit regardless of what the
other station logs, in the CWTs there is no log checking at all - 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!

73,
Rich VE3KI
CWT Manager
