See the message below sent by NY4N to the cq-contest repeater.  Read it 
and substitute SECC.

However, I believe Jeff is wrong about eligibility to submit scores for 
a club.  See my message sent in reply.

73,


John, K4BAI.

    Ok, it is just a few days till the California QSO Party. As you 
know, the
TCG was taken the first two out-of-state plaques for the highest scoring 
Club
total. I will tell you that several groups and clubs are wanting to 
claim the
prize this year. The competition is going to be fierce!
    What I would like to do is get a feel who all is going to play, and get
those who don't ordinarily play in contests, to get on and make a few Q's.
Please send me a e-mail with your intentions and how much time you can 
spare, and I
will keep a list and post on the reflector. You can also post to the
reflector directly, if you wish.
    If you don't mind, check your schedule and see if you can make some 
time
for the contest. There is plenty of activity on CW and SSB. I believe the
ARRL's Simulated Emergency Test is the same weekend, along with other 
things, so
your time may be limited. Any part you can play will be appreciated.
    A good way to get local Clubs involved is by using a Simulated 
Emergency
Test out of State. For example, have a drill, California has had some 
type of
natural disaster, (just a drill, no bad luck to our friends in 
California), and
all counties will be on the air this weekend passing short bursts of 
traffic
( the contest exchange). This exercise will test the ability of your 
Club to
obtain information (traffic) from a disaster zone across country, such as
Health and Welfare traffic. See how many California counties you can 
make contact
with in the mock test of emergency communications.
    This is an invitation to all hams, whether you live in Tennessee or 
not,
to join the TCG in the California QSO Party and keep the trophy with us, a
three-peat! Here is a site where you can get all the needed information. 
GL and
will be looking to hear from you.
Jeff  NY4N
