Topband: CW160

[Tom Haavisto]

One small request would be to NOT mention callsigns - at least during the 5
day "waiting period" for log submissions to be completed.

Some folks may not be running assisted, may bust the odd call or two, or
whatever.  No point in giving out corrected callsigns at this point.

Thanks

Tom - VE3CX
