Upcoming this year are the 160 and 10 meter contests.  10 meters is SSB as well as CW so no reason we can't get 10 logs in that one!Sadly we will not have W4MYA to lead us so we need to try a bit harder.  Lets win one for the "DUDE".  Hopefully we will have a MULTI-OP from W4HZ on 160 and maybe on 10 but we need ops to fill the chair and keep the station humming!  Anyone else with a decent antenna and some smoke might consider a small multi-op too!   The longer the station is on the more points are generated.  Remember as BOB, W4MYA said "run'em" !
