[UK-CONTEST] Gs in CQWW

[G3SJJ]

Those figures aren't too bad really Dave, except I suspect you are 
correct that a lot are casual, so a bit like Commonwealth Contest in 
that respect. A feeling of a need to contribute but not seriously. I 
will post something on the G8D "contribution" tomorrow, some ups and 
some downs!

We were called by a number of M0/M3s. I suspect most didn't realise that 
they weren't worth any points. Each time I welcomed the call but added a 
comment about no points. Several of them seemed a bit disgruntled which 
was puzzling.
