[Mldxcc] CQWW SSB Lack of Pacific stations

[Rick Samoian]

As an official "old fart", this is my 50th CQWW Contest.  Asia 
(particularly Japan), and the pacific was the key to the west coast 
having a reasonably competitive score with the rest of the country. The 
15M JA runs were practically endless, those of you who were licensed 
before 1985 know what I am talking about. So............... I guess I'm 
just lamenting the loss of the west coast equalizers............de Rick,
