One did ask me to QRS for the QTC. Generally, I just matched their speed or slowed down just a bit, or more if there were long delays before the ack.

I've never been on the receiving end of the QTCs, but it has to be challenging.

I'm reasonably certain that ham transplants to California will cry foul but Scott, it got so bad here with multiple zero-beat callers I had to start sending "QZB" (ie: you're all zero beat, please use your XIT)

That Q-signal didn't help either unfortunately ;-(

I love this contest. The EU's really know how to copy code.
 I missed Manfred DJ5MW asking me to QRQ this year.
Maybe I was finally QRQ enough for this contest as I did have 6 or 7 requests to QRS.

I started out sending "QRU" when I didn't want to send QTCs. Apparently, some don't know what that means, or thought I sent QRV. Later I just send "NO". (Many don't understand "N", either.)
