Soapbox:

I joined the 19Z CWT today, basically for the first time. So far I had
stayed away from that contest for the weird exchange format.

I started a bit late so only had about 35min to operate and got 17 QSO
done. Admittedly I had to re-check names and CWOPS numbers on qrz.com
for quite some ops. In the beginning, the missing "5nn" made it hard
to synchronize on the exchange, but that got better over time. Then
the remaining trouble was partly the general noise level on 80/40
here, and partly the high speed of some ops.

And I made a CWT QSO with UR8UQ who's also in our class! That was the
only CWA exchange I got, though.
