[NLRS] Rovermania III - Prelim plans, July 27

[W0ZQ at aol.com]

Hello NLRS land.   
 
Just an update regarding Rovermania III, the ARRL UHF contest ( August  5 -6, 
1 PM to 1 PM, 222 and up ).   
 
First John, K9JK, will be writing up the contest results for the League, so  
please forward any post-contest stories & information to him .... logs go to  
the ARRL contest robot (or paper logs via mail) as usual.     
 
Second, I have added the "Off-of-down-town" activity hours  below.   The idea 
is that not everyone can make it out to  play for the whole contest, but 
perhaps you can find 30 minutes around  one of the activity times to aim at 
Downtown.    Remember,  all plans are tentative & non-binding ! 

Anyone else gonna come out  and play ?   .    

73, Jon.
