[John Lynn]

Fur Rondy Dog Race
 
The North American Championship Sled Dog Race is scheduled for Friday,
Saturday and Sunday, February 22, 23 and 24.  The race runs from Noon to
about 5PM all three days.  The 147.300 repeater will be used.  All but one
of the checkpoints can be driven to and about half of them can be worked
from a mobile.  The rest require a handheld.  The minimum staff is 14 HAMs
on all three days.  We'll also need a couple of alternates and relief
operators.  Warm clothing, spare battery and a headset are also appropriate
for this event. Bring your own snacks and coffee too.   Contact John Lynn at
KL7CY at ARRL.NET to volunteer and for additional information.  I will send a
map to all replies so you can pick the checkpoint you want, first come first
served. 
 
Race start at Noon, setup at 11:00AM and check point check in at 11:30AM
The race net will be 147.300 plus w/141.3 Hz, the KL7ION repeater
Net Control will be from a home station so start/finish only has to work the
board
Two operators are desirable at start/finish on the board to insure
continuous coverage
