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.

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.)
