I have been asked to pass along to CW ops the fact that CWT is scheduled for three slots today, and maybe to stand down during those times.
Here's their request from K2L:

One of our K2L CW Operators just advised me of the weekly CWT Sessions that occur each Wednesday for three (3), one-hour periods in the contest bands like 10, 20, 40, 80.??

?He advises that hundreds of CW Operators (Including many 13 Col CW Operators) will be practicing their CW skills at these times across .? As such, this mode may be chaotic and somewhat conflict with our event.?

?

?The CWT operating times for Wednesday - July 6, 2022 are:

?

• 0900 - 1000 EDT
• 1500 - 1600 EDT
• 2300 - 2400 EDT

Since CWT overlaps with our Thirteen Colonies Event, it might make it difficult to make contacts as well as frustrating to other operators.

In the spirit of being good radio partner operators, we at K2L will stand-down from CW Operations for these time periods.??

My comment to them: seems a little silly.
They should not take entire bands.
A CW signal is maybe 25 Hz wide, so there's plenty of room for all.

Use your own judgment.
