[RTTY] Contest Hints

[Vladimir Sidarau]

In the CQ WW there was a guy who managed to get all possible troubles into a
single message. It was:

599 04 IN OKLAHOMA DE <CALL>

Just like he (she) has been reading this list very thoroughly lately...

It made my day. 

73,

Vladimir VE3IAE

To add to the list of "Don'ts", please DO NOT spell out ur State.

I have seen MISSISSIPPI (instead of MS), and OHIO (instead of OH) and the
list can go on and on.  Please abbreviate your state/province guys.

Also, leave out the UR's (i.e. "W0RAA DE Wxxxx  HI DICK UR XXX XXX ETC ETC."

I APPRECIATE THE CORDIAL GREETINGS, BUT NOT IN A CONTEST.  In short, please
Keep it simple.

Been a great contest so far and band condx are great, even in the Colorado
RF Black hole.
