Sorry you feel so mistreated Ron. You have stated multiple times that you
will not submit a log for CQWW so I don't understand why you feel slighted.
The survey was launched late Friday night and then I went on a trip. The
thinking was to get the active participants through first and then announce
the survey to the public on Monday. I didn't expect the speed of this
showing up on cq-contest. I should have known better.
We really are interested in hearing the opinions of active operators in the
CQWW contest. The answers do give us insight into how people with different
activity levels see the contest. And how people in different parts of the
planet see the contest.
The results of the survey will help inform the review of the rules that is
planned for this year. The results will be published on the CQWW blog as
has been done before with the CQ WPX survey.
Never forget. This is all supposed to be for entertainment, fun, and
leisure!
Randy, K5ZD
