Mike,

Yes there are contests to aid in WAS in cw and on phone.  My
suggestion/thought was one designed for RTTY.

Such an event does, in fact, exist! Now that I think of it, it's coming
up quick (at least the SSB leg). ARRL Sweepstakes is an excellent way to
work all states (and Canadian provinces) in one weekend. See

This past weekend I was working stations in the WAE contest. Like many
of
you may have noticed the bands "open" during a contest which to me
thinking. Why can't we have a weekend a year for a WAS contest. We could
choose bands (like 10, 20, 40, and 80) to use. Give points for contacts.
Exchange RST + State.

Maybe we could have someone step up to take the logs and issue
certificates.

I would plan on using it like I used the WAE contest. That would be to
fill in needs because the band will "open" and stations will be on the
air
where I can find them.

What do you think? Let's start at least talking about the idea assuming
that this hasn't been covered in the past. I'm open for ideas and
discussions.

I just got my 10m RTTY WAS certificate, #438. If that's the correct
number
it's no wonder it took so long to get it, hard for everyone. This was by
far the
most difficult out of 5 bands but it finishes off 5BWAS RTTY all LOTW.
