[Logic] Changing the Time

Tue, 29 Oct 2002 08:00:05 -0500

Carl,

"Qs" or simply "Q" is a Contestor/Contesting reference to contact(s).  Even
ARRL uses it, etc., etc..  Just as there are "cut" numbers in CW contesting,
"Q" is another accepted abbreviation.  Like it or not, Q is here to stay
amongst us contesters - else strike up your cause w/ the entire contesting
community ... a large bunch at that!

CUL ...

Regards,  Bill  K1UQ
