>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!
