[Elecraft] Hoot Owl Sprint

[Rod N0RC]

Folks,

I want to add my voice to the chorus, and encourage everyone to join
in the fun tonight. Details at:

 http://personal.palouse.net/rfoltz/arci/hoot.htm

Don't be concerned if you are not a contester, this event is as much
fun as an ARS Sprint, and operators of all skill levels are welcome.

Listen for me on 20m early on, conditions on 20 have been pretty
good
the last few nights up until about 10pm local. Heck I may even give
15m a try.

Conditions are looking pretty good so far here is the latest WWV
report:

Given no cataclysmic "Solar Event", tonight should be a real fun
time.
