<P><FONT face=Verdana>Caros Colegas,<BR><BR>Com a aproximação dos dois mais
importantes e participativos concursos mundiais em HF, que são o CQWW DX Contest
e o CQ World Wide WPX Contest, o colega japonês Maslll H. Kozu, JE3MAS
disponibiliza desde algum tempo, tendo realizado a ultima actualização em
Outubro de 2008, um importante instrutor de concursos para
computador, especialmente vocacionado para estas duas e
outras competições, tanto em CW como em SSB, o denominado " Xped Contest
trainer ".<BR><BR>Por teste já efectuados, as competições virtuais em CW são
mais "realistas" que as em SSB, no entanto, tanto umas como outras permitem a
todos os "Contesters" um excelente treino, onde se chega ao ponto de simular os
níveis de ruído; mais altos nas bandas de 80m e menores em 10m e mesmo maiores
ou menores "pile-ups". Obviamente que todos, tem aqui uma boa ferramenta para a
vossa preparação tanto para os concursos em HF, como mesmo em VHF e UHF
inclusive.</FONT></P>
