SOC Marathon Sprint
Most sprints run four hours, but since we're Second Class Op's,
we need more time!

Date/Time: September 8, 2007, 1800Z through 2400Z

Power Multiplier:      0 - <250 mW = X 15;
                   250 mW - <1 Watt = X 10;
                      1 W - 5 W = X 7;

Apply an additional multiplier of 1.5 if using a homebrew paddle (kits 
such as the NorCal and AZ ScQRPions paddles qualify).

All entries are Multi-Band to promote maximum participation.

Indicate total time-on-the-air, and include a legible name, call, SOC 
Number (if any) and address.  All entries must be received within 30 
days of the contest date.  The highest output power used will determine 
the power multiplier.  Include a description of homebrew  equipment 
(including paddle or key), commercial equipment, and antennas used  with 
each entry.

Results may be posted on QRP-L and on the SOC Website.  The final 
decision on all maters concerning the contest rests with the contest
