Hi Jeff.
Just imagine VE7 competing against VY2 or VO1 in CQ WW for 950 points... Or in Russian DX for 910 points...
Definitely, I would rather be a W4 competing against New England guys. :-))

  I realize it's almost impossible to make everyone happy but ....


  1)  Only one team from Canada ? They can't be too happy about that !!
      You would think they would get more respect after VE3EJ/VE7ZO 
      won WRTC-2006.

  2) Two teams from AF ?   Much of the contest activity from AF is by 
     Dxpeditions.

  3) Why do the WRTC sponsors continue to group the W4 call area with 
      W1/W2/W3 ? Our propagation is nothing like New England. Where I 
      live near the GA/AL border much of the W8 call area is east of me 
      (plus closer to EU).  GA ,SC and FL belong in NA Area #2

  4) 21 teams for EU and only 10 for the USA ?  AS (Other) has 3 teams more or equal to any area in NA ???

  5) No young contester or YL teams ???

    Overall I don't think the breakdown by areas of the world is representative of contesting activity. I guess John (K4BAI) and I 
  will have to pray for another miracle to happen like it did for WRTC-2006...
