[UK-CONTEST] The dreaded WAE-CW QTCs!

[Chris]

Seems fair enough but who has got a tape recorder capable of 48 hour 
recording? Ferrograph used to I think!

Think they need to update the info it to include digital recording using 
Writelog and N1MM!! Might have ago next year then! I suspect it's fairly 
standard practice now anyway!
