[PPRAANet] Contests

[DESloan at aol.com]

The Ten=Ten contest just might be pretty good. Last evening in about 30  
minutes I contacted stations in Wi, In, Tn, Al, Fl, Ga and VA. Last Sunday a  
friend from back east made contacts in 18 states. So, if propagation 
continues  through the weekend with the added stations on the air, their should be 
plenty  of contacts. Hope to work you during the contest. Contacts count 
towards the  contest even if a person does not have a ten ten number.

There is  a Ten-Ten Contest this weekend.  Not sure how much activity it 
will  
generate, but if you need your Ten-Ten number, this may be a way to get  
it. 
You can find the 10X web site at www.ten-ten.org.  There is a  contest 
calendar on the site along with rules.

The big  one:

The weekend of Feb. 13-14 is the CQ WW WPX RTTY Contest.   This starts the 
CQ 
WW Season.  This is a big contest and the mode is  RTTY.  It's a fun 
contest, 
and you can run WriteLog or N1MM  Logger.  If anybody needs assistance 
setting up, please contact me  ASAP, as this is not something you want to 
do 
at the very last  minute.  I can be reached by landline at 520-0288.  
Usually  
between the hours of 9 A.M. and 9 P.M.  Best to call in the afternoon  if 
possible.

This contest is to work as many different world-wide  prefixes as you can.  
A 
single Op station can work 30 of the 48 hours  contest.  Multi-Op stations 
may operate the full 48 hours.  The  rules are at:

Hope to see some  PPRAA members in this one and work  you.
