[PPRAANet] Station offer for Rookie Roundup Contest

[Steve **KT0DX**]

  I will also offer my station if anyone meeting the requirements for 
this contests as indicated below has a desire to operate.
I also have a complete contest station:

Yaesu FTDX5000 (Good chance to operate one of the newest radio's on the 
market)
Emtron DX2SP  (1500 watts)
HyGain TH6DXX (6 element beam) at 70 feet
Force 12 40 meter vertical
The tower is shunt feed for 75/80 meters.

I am located in Fountain and it is first come first served.  My cell 
phone number is 659-9674.  If you have a desire to give it a go from 
here let me know today so I can take a look at getting N1MM set up for 
this contest.  If this is your first ever contest and you want I can 
ride shot gun on another head set until you want to go it alone.

Good deal Dick on offering up the station.
