***************************************************

Hi fellow Rttyer's,

I fully agree with with Bill W7TI, his opinion hits the target. The point is
to collect and log as many
stations & multis as possible in a limited time. That's so simple.We're
really not anymore testing the
error free data flow between the continent and so vesting the time to
nonsense during a contest.

I vote for non-QTC !

Please readjust the WAE RTTY rules for next year.


rgds,
