[CQ-Contest] CWT Virus has spread to ARRL 10M - WPX next?

[jpescatore--- via CQ-Contest <cq-contest@contesting.com>]

A few months ago, after remotely opping OZ5W as part of a MM in the SAC CW and 
running into cut numbers in variable serial numbers, I reached out to the ARRL, 
WPX and CA QP test to recommend prohibiting cut numbers in non ST exchange 
fields.
Saw them quite a bit in the 10M ARRL this past weekend. I think CQ WPX CW is 
next big one with serial number - still time to avoid EE5E send dit  dah dit  
dah dit    dit   dit   dit  dit  towards the end of the weekend...
The N1MM entry window parser will convert most of the letters if you type what 
you hear, but I'd rather see rates increase by higher speed at both end vs. 
shorter exchanges. Current rules vary about what happens if you do submit log 
with alpha characters in serial number field.
