Exchange:  RS(T) + SPC or TN county.  W4NZ says all counties may be 
activated.

I will try to be QRV Friday night and Saturday part time in CW and Phone 
contests, but will miss the first half, at least, of the Sprint and 
won't be QRV on Sunday, so will miss all of TQP.  Note that there is a 
team competition in the TQP.  Teams consist of five members of a club 
either inside or outside the state.  They do not need to be registered 
in advance.  SECC has won this club competition at least once.  It would 
be interesting if ACG and/or SECC entered teams or perhaps a join entry 
if there aren't enough for separate teams.  However, I'd think there 
would be enough for a team from each club.

Hope everyone has a good week and weekend and a lot of QSOs.  73, John, 
K4BAI.
