Well.
I know Many dont want to end SCC contest at all.... i think CQ WW forced
closedown, coz of a very nice weekend...
Why couldnt CQ WW committee, WWROF and FT8’ers found a weekend with lot of
dying PSK contests?
SCC was popular and buggest event to prepare CQ WW RTTY.
I dont see the strategy & plan to kill RTTY
I am born witt RTTY, will die with it in my blood
Best Regards,
