[TenTec] RE: CW calling, contest

[Bwana Bob]

Let's put the calling freq(s) in the Novice band where new General
cw beginners are likely to congregate.

The "contest" is intended to stimulate interest in cw communications,
Ten-Tec gear, and to have fun. As such, I envision it as an ongoing
activity, not annual or monthly, but something more like WAS or DXCC
where one would accumulate points over a long period of time. One could
get a basic certificate, by working 10 Ten-Tecs (say that fast 10
times), then collecting endorsements for WAS T-T, TTCC (Ten-Tec Century
Club), Worked all types of TT rigs, etc. The exchange should encouraga
real QSO, not the 2 second data bursts common to most contests.
