Hola todos,
Para los que hagan el CQWPX , en la dirección de abajo pueden introducir su indicativo y descargar certificado de participación, con ranking para los primeros cincuenta en cada categoría.
http://www.cqwpx.com/score_db.htm
Por ejemplo, introduzcan EC5KXA y presionen CW y en los dos resultados que salen, dénle click al [cert] y automáticamente se genera un pdf del diploma! HK1X también tiene uno por ahí...
