Comments:
Had never before taken the time and interest in investigating the QTC
"thing", so this was my first ever participation in WAE. Though, with
superb summer weather this week-end (at last), only sporadic time was spent at
the radio.
Had not prepared in advance, so spent the first hours to look up the WAE basics
and to get the grips of the process and mechanism of QTC. And when eventually
delving into it, the first couple of packages suffered from finger trouble with
the excellent QTC features of N1MM.
Was somewhat reluctant to request QTCs, not knowing whether there are unwritten
rules about when and how to intervene with "QTC?", whether ops are
happy or p..ed off with such requests, whether the hyper-fast ones will get
annoyed to lose time if one should suggest slight QRS, etc.
All in all, a fun and positive experience and may attend WAE witn a more
dedicated and aggressive attitude next time :-)
