[HCRA] Topband Challenge this weekend

[Mike DeChristopher]

Hi all-

Passing this along as I know some of you have a newfound interest in
160m. The Summer Stew Perry Topband Challenge is this weekend. It's an
entirely different type of event where the distance of the QSO
matters.

See N6TR's email below.

GL,
Mike N1TA

A final reminder that the summer Stew Perry contest is happening this
weekend.  After being silent in March, I am hoping to get K7RAT back on the
air in time to hand out some QSOs.  Will likely be a tree supported wire of
some kind at the new QTH.

Rules and previous results are here:

Remember the brand new Stew Perry Quatre Seasons Award!!

This special award - which will likely consist of a plaque - will be
presented to the single-op participant who accumulates the highest total of
points over the four events for a given year.

This is the second event for 2018 - so you can add to your score from March.
Your points will be counted regardless of which power category you enter.
Note that the low power entry has a 1.5X multiplier and the QRP one has a
3X multiplier.  You figure out which category will help your overall total
at the end of the year.
