[UK-CONTEST] EU sprint.

[Andy swiffin]

I only stumbled across the Sprint by accident after finishing some
painting in the house.  (Yes, sorry I allowed domestic chores to get in
the way of radio :-)

What a jolly contest!    I wish I'd been paying attention before and
had registered that it was on - I only had time to spend 30 or 40
minutes but it was a real laugh  and I hope I'll have time to take the
next one more seriously.

A question -  Will the CW one be full of people with machines rattling
away at 40 WPM so that ordinary mortals like me won't have a chance of
copying anything?   If the CW speed was limitted to something sensible
I'd be keener to have a go -  how about putting a speed limit on these
things?  Or even better make everyone use a trad key for sending that'll
sort 'em out.  I'm sure there are some people who can rattle away
manually at 40wpm but it mostly seems pointless to me!

Cheers
