INTERNET SQUIRT CONTEST
The fourth SquINT contest will be held on March 9th at 2100Z for
for 90 minutes. Suggested frequencies are 14270-14290. Exchange
name, age, QTH (ie: state/province/country) and favorite song.
There are three categories:
1. Parent-child category: All transmissions must be made with real time
speech from the mouth of your child (sitting in or near your lap).
Whispering in their ear is okay. Logging done by the control operator.
Guest ops are okay. So are guest parents. Beware of third party rules.
2. Child operating and doing all the logging.
3. Child at heart operations.
Potty breaks do not count as off time. Add 10 points for each diaper
changed during the contest (up to a maximum of 30 points). The diaper
doesn't have to belong to one of the operators. Pull-ups or Good-nights
do not count.
Final score = Number of minutes spent having fun in front of the radio
with your kid * the number of favorable comments you get from your
spouse about the activity and then add the diaper bonus.
E-mail your logs and comments to kids@cmicro.com. If you are not on this
list, please subscribe via n6tr@cmicro.com. A test message has been sent
to the list. If you didn't get it, then you need to subscribe.
There will probably be colorful certificates available to all particpants
for a small fee to cover printing and postage (thanks to Greg, KO9Y).
