Mike, that's old and incorrect information. It WAS true for the 2001
contest, but NOT the 2002!
They are no longer accepting anything but paper logs -- not even a disk, and
yes, I know it's a step backwards!
Also, the address is now the Nittany ARC's main Post Office box, not the
chairman's home address (it's also a different chairman this year. Again.)
"LOGS AND DUPE SHEETS - Logs and dupe sheets must be submitted with an
official summary form or reasonable facsimile. 100 points will be deducted
for each dupe found. The summary sheet can be downloaded from the web site

Logs must be submitted with an official summary form or reasonable

paper logs are also acceptable.
SEND LOGS by Nov. 15, 2001 to:

Thank you, Kelly. Guys and gals...please consider which is more likely =
to cause a casual or non-contester to get on and operate...
This year - "Special Interest: Operators will travel to many interesting =
DX locations..."
or=20
Last year's - "6.6.4. DXpedition scores may be included in the Medium =
and Unlimited club totals only."
We need to stop breathing our own exhaust and start selling others on =
what a whale of a lot of fun they can be having doing some contesting. =
As I posted last week - the biggest challenge we have is reaching out to =
other hams. This is one example of how to do it - by removing dry =
rules-and-regulations and replacing it with a little sizzle. If you =
have better ideas for the sizzle, then by all means, let's have 'em!!

I don't know the Canadian rules relative to 11M, but I'm sure Riley would have
some interest if this dual-service dxpedition took place on US territory.
Hey, did you notice these guys have their own DXCC and Cluster.....
