[UK-CONTEST] IRTS CW

[Clive Whelan]

Wow Geoff, fantastic result   ;-) I could only make 10 QSOs in 8 
counties :-(


I'm not sure if the lack of activity on CW is a result of the lack of a 
CW section, or if the opposite is the case. Either way it doesn't really 
matter, because as Geoff says, we're all EI'd out.

We know intuitively that an "everybody works G" contest simply isn't 
viable because of the apathy of G contesters, so methinks IRTS will have 
to acknowledge that self same truth for their own country. That's their 
decision of course, but I've had more fun cleaning out the cupboard 
under the sink so.....
