Greetings ya'll,

There are two important events coming up  next month.

First, Maryland QSO Party (http://mdcqsoparty.w3vpr.org/)  will be held on 
8-9 
August.  There are two operating periods for the  event:

Period 1: Saturday, noon to midnight
Period 2: Sunday, noon  to 8:00 PM.

We made a pretty good showing last year (15,644 points,  fifth place) and 
I'm 
hoping we can improve those numbers this year.   I'd like to activate the 
station at Mt. Hope, again, and keep both radios  humming (until 9:00PM 
when 
they kick us out).

Second, the ARRL  Rookie Roundup - RTTY 
(http://www.arrl.org/rookie-roundup) is 
coming up on  16 August and aimed at getting new hams (licensed three years 
or 
less) on  the air and trying new things.  I think we have a few new hams in 
the  
club so this would be an excellent time to get your feet wet while having  
someone nearby to help you out if you have questions.

Again, I'd  like to see Mt. Hope being used for this.  The event begins 
2:00 PM  
and ends 7:59 PM (so no problems with getting kicked out).

Who else  is interested in the above events and can help make some noise on 
the  
radio?

73,
Eric  W4OTN/3
