We present a generalization of Lubich's Convolution Quadrature which allows for variable time steps. The main application of our method is the time integration of retarded potentials arising in wave scattering problems. The algorithmic realization of the new method relies on contour integral techniques in the complex plane. Numerical experiments are provided to show the potential of our approach.
