Attention 160M RF Connoisseurs Real or Imagined,
     December 29 and 30 are rapidly approaching. Please mouse on over to:
http://www.kkn.net/stew/         and read why this home grown contest is a
huge amount of fun to play in. It is unique. It uses a distance mnemonic
for
scoring. You can play in 14 of the 24 hour allotted time period. The plaques
are sponsored by the RF combatants in categories deemed important by the
donors. You can sponsor a plaque also, like the Stalwarts listed below. $65
and an email to me will get your family friendly plaque category listed to
be
fought over.

     TopBand has been having some prodigious, powerful propagation over the
past week. The Boring Amateur Radio Club appreciates that the ARRL is
sponsoring a 160M CW contest this very weekend in order to have some
fun and to get your TopBand Affairs in astounding order for The Stew Perry
TopBand DX Challenger in a few weeks.
     If you're considering sponsoring a plaque- don't delay- just execute.
What
aspect of seriously fun 160M contesting would YOU like to emphasize?
     The results of the 2017 Stew are on the above web page. The plaque
winners
have been anointed. The new Official Boring Amateur Radio Club
plaquemeister  is hard at work making the beautiful  plaques which will be
dispatched
all around the world next week to the winners..
    So get your chores done. Tell everyone you have a very important group
conference call that'll last 14 hours Dec. 29-30 so that you can participate
in the 23rd Stew Perry TopBand Dx Challenge sponsored by The Boring
Amateur Radio Club.
