[TenTec] CQWW CW contest

[Mike Hyder -N4NT-]

Instead of incrementing the contact number by one, increment it by five or 
ten.

Much as I love cw contesting, I actually jacked the cqww contest in for one
reason only and wonder how many US amateurs feel the same.
The repetitive and boring exchange of zone numbers. ad nauseum.
A whole 48 hrs contest DL 14, SP 15, YU 17. W 05 and so on ad nauseum is
just not my idea of fun or inducing any competitive spirit.
When you are cock-a-hoop at your 750 or so contacts and someone comes along
with 1200, that really spurs you on to greater things.
How about a rethink CQ?
