[CQ-Contest] Poisson d'Avril

[John Geiger]

I would have won, but my QSO with P51DX was disqualified, which cost me the
contest.  I guess my RTTY exchange wasn't long enough. I forgot to include
that I once used Hamscope software for PSK31 in the exchange.  Some contest
rules have no leeway at all!
