I was reading the rules, and there's a few things that have ReAlLy got me
scratchin my head...

Suggested Frequencies:
SSB 146.55...  Are you CrAzY???  146.55 is a FM freq...
PSK 50.250...  Wrong...  50.250 is the RTTY Callin freq...  PSK is
50.290...  FSK is 50.270...
No mention of FM, which is 50.300 Horizontal, 52.525 Vertical...

Mobile Window - 5 KHz down...  Bad idea, that would put the 6M USB freq on
50.120, that's in the DX window...  QRP/M freq is 50.1625...

Participation Coffee Mugs - 100 QSOs...  100Qs on 20 is cake, but 100 Qs
on 6 is ImPoSsIbLe...  Is there an exception for us mono-band VHFers??? 
:)  Hell, I'd pay double for one...

Participation T-Shirts - Is this a one time only silk-screen jobs, or can
we get our names and calls on them???

Pre-party Net - Somebody should link this to a few PA 2M /Repeaters
(again, for us VHFers...)...

Andy N8OFS/CP (Caboose Portable) from Ashtabula County OH (EN91ou) in the
PAQSOP...  I'll do AnYtHiNg for a good Contest...
