If you're newly licensed (2008, 2009, 2010) you qualify to operate as a 
Rookie in the ARRL Rookie Roundup Contest this weekend.  It was formerly the 
Novice Roundup.  This weekend it is SSB mode only.

The rules can be found at http://www.arrl.org/rookie-roundup.  Non-Rookies 
can work only Rookies (those who sign as "callsign/Rookie".  Call CQ "Rookie 
Roundup" on SSB. Eg: CQ Rookie Roundup this is W0XXX stroke Rookie".  If I 
were to answer you I would respond:
"W0XXX stroke Rookie from W0RAA Dick CO"  You would erespond "W0RAA from 
W0XXX stroke Rookie Carol 08 CO".  Then log the contact and move on to the 
next one.

Read the rules and join the fun.

Be sure to submit your score per the rules on the web site above, but also 
to me for inclusion in the PPRAA Contest Award program.

Question?  E-mail me at dickt at w0raa.com or by landline at 520-0288.
