> Hello all:

> Hope everyone has a good Labor Day weekend. There are a few contests
> this weekend even though it is the fifth weekend in August. In addition
> to an RTTY contest sponsored by the Slovenian Contest Club, there is an
> international everyone works everyone else CW and SSB contest, a South
> African CW contest, and a QRP contest on Labor Day itself.
>
> 1. YO DX HF Contest. 12 UTC Saturday Aug 30 to 12 UTC Sunday Aug 31.
> Send RS or RST + serial number. YO stations only send RS or RST + YO
> county designation (two letters). Bands are 80 through 10 meters. One
> QSO per band regardless of mode. Everyone may work everyone else, but
> stations within one's own country don't count for points (multiplier
> only). Everyone has a ten minute per band rule except for a quick band
> change for a multiplier. A mode change within the 10 minute period
> appears to be OK.
>
> Complete rules and list of YO county abbreviations at:

> 2. SARL HF CW contest. 1330 UTC to 1730 UTC Sunday, August 31. 80,
> 40, 20 M CW. Frequencies on 20 M: 14030-14060. Sent RST + serial
> number. Work only ZS stations.
>
> 3. Michigan QRP Club Labor Day Sprint. 2300 UTC Monday Sept 1 to 0300
> UTC Tuesday. Monday night local time. 160 through 6 meters. (I
> found 6 meters open to Texas one night this week about 10 PM.) Exchange
> RST, SPC, and Mi-QRP Member number or power output. Multipliers count
> per band, so QSYs are helpful for new mults. Bonus multipliers for home
> brew gear, including kits whether or not you made it yourself. You will
> feel better if you run 5 watts or less, but there is a Class for over 5
> watts if you can't crank down your rig that low.
> http://www.qsl.net/miqrpclub/contest.html. You can get entry sheets or
> a module for the NA contest logging program from n8cqa@att.net.
>
> Hope everyone has some fun in and outside contesting this weekend.
