Greetings:
The Milwaukee Radio Amateurs' Club has a complete revision of the rules and
regulations for their annual FM Simplex Contest. Although they are oriented
toward the Milwaukee area, which is fortunate to have the intersection of four
Grid Squares, the rules can easily be adapted for use anywhere. The event will
be held Sunday, February 12 between 2:00 and 4:00 p.m. The goal of the contest
is to encourage folks, especially the newly licensed, to upgrade their stations
and find a life beyond repeaters.
Therefore, feel free to download the contest information from
http://www.w9rh.org the Club's Web Site or request them directly from me,
kb9q@arrl.net. The flyers and rules are also available in the Milwaukee Area
at Amateur Electronics' Supply and will be at the January 7 Hamfest at the
Waukesha County Fairgrounds.
Finally, since the contest is run on local time I would encourage anyone,
anywhere to send in an entry. There are awards by band, for mobile/portable
operation, clubs and of course overall winner.
