KE4OAR:The QTCs added another dimension to contesting...

KF4VMT: After giving my exchange to EA3AR he gave me a special hello and told me by name that he'd received my QSL the week before and wished me good luck. That was a very pleasant surprise...

KS4XG: We lost about 20 QSOs and QTC records when our pc died. Then we lost our minds trying vainly to recover and everything we did made the log damage worse...
