AFAIK the CQ WW RTTY is always the 4th full weekend in September. Last year the
contest started 0000 Saturday 23-Sep-2006. This year is should start 0000
Saturday 22-Sep-2007.
But the variable is whether the contest manager considers a "full weekend" to
be Saturday + Sunday or Friday + Saturday + Sunday. If the later, then the date
would be a week later.
In Minnesota a weekend is Saturday + Sunday and Friday is considered a work day.

Hi
Need some help as to the date of the contest in September.
The CQ calendar (on my wall) says the 29th weekend in September and the CQ
site says the 22nd weekend?
Anybody know for sure which weekend it is? I emailed CQ magazine with no
response.
Thanks
Ken W0LSD
