QSL VIA K3SWZ ---> Glenn, K3SWZ reports he is is the QSL manager for
W3XS/MM, HI3/W3XS, KP4/W3XS "and any other places W3XS goes or has been".
WRTC 2014: LIVE SCOREBOARD ---> There will be a live scoreboard for
tracking the team standings in near real-time during the World Radiosport
Team Championship (12-13 July). The scoreboard can be accessed directly on
the web (http://sb.wrtc2014.org) or from a link on the WRTC 2014 web site
(wrtc2014.org).
The web site will show the scores of all teams ordered by score. Clicking
on a team will reveal the team's band breakdown, hourly rate sheet, and
position for each hour of the contest. A leader board page will list the
top 5 teams by CW contacts, SSB contacts, multipliers, and points per QSO.
It will also be possible to select multiple teams and compare their scores
on a graph vs time. Teams will be shown by the calls of the team members
rather than their over-the-air callsign (this is done to maintain fairness
by keeping the team identity behind each callsign a secret).
The scoreboard site is live before the contest for testing purposes. All
scores will be reset to zero before the contest begins at 12.00 UTC on 12
July.
