Hi All -

One last plea for activity tomorrow (Saturday) from 8:00 am until 6:00 pm.  
The exchange is your name and your county.  Minnesota stations can work anyone 
while the rest of the world works Minnesota.  Multipliers for Minnesota 
stations are Minnesota counties and states and provinces.  Others use Minnesota 
counties as multipliers.

A few tips:

1) Make sure you work everyone twice on each band.  Once on SSB and once on 
CW.  Each SSB QSO is worth 1 pt while CW Q's are worth 2 pts.

2) Check 6M frequently.  If we get some Es, there are a lot of state 
multipliers to pick up.  Also listen for AU.  

3) Make sure you work the nearby states.  I hope we'll get some activity from 
WI, IA, SD, ND, VE4 & VE3.  Maybe even some MO and IL.

73 & Good luck to all.  I'll be working HF the whole time and will work the 
four lower VHF bands often too.
