[Cwo] [cwops] preliminary CW Open metrics

Given all the inputs, I would say let's do Aug 30 and risk colliding
with YO DX.

Good question Hank.  I think we decided on the first (partial)
weekend in Sept. Be it Sat Aug 31 (zulu) like this year or first Sept
Saturday (zulu).  Need to look at the 2014 contest calendar and see
if that's a problem or not.  I haven't done that. Might be we were
just lucky this year with the split weekend.

Picking a day that didn't have some other "big" event
happening was probably the biggest help. We were burned by unknowingly
competing with RDA the first year, and Keyman last year. That really hurt.
Really tough to find a "free" weekend, but this new date looks
like a winner.

 




 
What is the "new date?"



 
Is it last zulu Friday in August? Or zulu Friday of first (partial)
weekend in September? Or ... ?
