[TVARC] WAE CW W3US Single Op HP

[K2PS Pete Stafford]

Good job, Rusty.  Haven't played in that one for quite awhile, but did enjoy
it back then.  And congrats on getting credit for all those QTCs.  Not sure
I'd want to be on the EU end.

The annual Worked All Europe CW contest.  Either you love it, or you hate
it.  This is the only contest that I am aware where contestants exchange
blocks of QSO information, called QTCs.  On the plus side, QTCs enable
stations to effectively double their score.  Non-Europeans send
time/call/serial of stations worked (up to ten) while Europeans log the
exchange.  Clearly, Europe does the heavy lifting.  Scores over 1M are not
uncommon.  Band conditions were pretty decent, better on Sunday than
Saturday.  We even got to run a bit.  I am really happy for WAE this
weekend, as the MDC QSO Party was a bust with only six stations worked.  For
those wishing to try their luck, WAE SSB is in September and WAE RTTY in
November.  Contest on!
