Member or not, old time rig or not, pse call participating stations 
with a sig report. For example: Ur RST 452 RAC.

Objective: Work as many AWA members as possible using pre-1930 
transmitters. Contact exchange consists of: RST, Name, QTH (State or 
Province such as ME, CA or BC), last two digits of the year of the 
transmitters design or publication, type of transmitter (such as 
Hartley, TNT, TPTG, MOPA & Colpitts), and power INPUT.

Saturday Dec. 8 through Sunday Dec 9. Starts at 2300Z (6:00 PM EST) 
Saturday night and finishes at 2300Z (6:00 PM EST) Sunday night both

self-controlled oscillator. Tubes must have been available during or 
before 1929. Participants are encouraged but not required to use 
straight keys. Please work any AWA member, but the contact will only 
count for scoring if made with another 1929 or earlier station. 

Input Power: Transmitters are limited to a power INPUT of 10 watts 
or less. However, to help make East-West contacts, power may be 
increased to 20 watts INPUT between the hours of 0500Z (12 Midnight
