Nice try Vladimir...

But your methodology doesn't hold up with the CQWW WPX RTTY Contest. It is run on the second full weekend of February. That was Feb 10/11 2007.

So there is an exception. I didn't check any of the other events.

Gents,

Quite too much talks on a simple item.
All CQ contests take part on a last full weekend of a month. Then, each CQ 
contest takes place on a certain month. I never look at particulat dates 
printed somewhere. I only know that if I am free on a last full weekend of 
March, I'll have a chance to enter the WPX Phone. If the last weekend of 
September is free (very seldom to me), I am lucky to play in the CQ WW RTTY, 
and so on. There are no exceptions, everything is so plain easy:
Feb - WPX RTTY
Mar - WPX PH
May - WPX CW
Sep - CQ WW RTTY
Oct - CQ WW PH
Nov - CQ WW CW.
Take a last full weekend and you are done.

73,
Vladimir VE3IAE
