I think a heads-up contester could pick up more points by slowing down during those times when the QSO rate has dropped. Better to call one time at 12 wpm and work a station than to call 10 times at 30 wpm and work nobody. I've not heard this during a contest however. Seems most are only interested in collecting high-speed points and would prefer to continue calling CQ TEST at 30 wpm with no answer.
Yea, I know speed changes are not always easy to do, but if it helps the final score, I bet folks would find a way. - Keith N1AS - - K2 5411.ssb.100 - _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
