[Corkradioclub] EI13CLAN

[Cormac Gebruers]

Dave et al,

Great stuff. I look forward to it. It overlaps with the Stew Perry top band
contest (starts 1500z on Saturday). I'll be putting in a serious effort for
the Stew as it's my favourite event of the year. I don't think EI13CLAN can
be used for it?

Are you volunteering to manage the band/mode/time plan? :-) if so, put me
down for any slot or slots pre 1500 as required, otherwise we can talk it
through at the social this evening with a view to getting the battle plan
together...
