Many of these stations will be using retired broadcast
rigs, they sound excellent!

The 3rd Annual Heavy Metal Rally will commence the
evening of Saturday, December 28th and the party
continues all night.

Everyone is encouraged to participate, but the goal is
to have as many AM Tall Ships participate. Bring your
broadcast iron, military, homebrew, T-368s and KW1s to
the party!

This year's rules are: You get one base point per QSO.
One additional point if the station you work is
running a rig weighing at least 250 pounds. One
additional point for rigs with a minimum carrier power
output of 250 watts. One point for each different
state. One point for each different type of
transmitter. 

So if you work someone running an RCA BTA-1 1KW
broadcast rig, that's three points right off the bat,
one for making the contact, two more for 250 pounds
AND 250 watts; add a point for states and different
rigs as appropriate. 

Suggested operating frequencies are:
1885 KC Eastern USA, 1900 KC Western USA,
3870-3890 KC on 75 meters.
7290 KC on 40 meters.

Contest logs should be mailed to my home c/o QRZ
address or sent to me by email.
heavymetalrally@earthlink.net

ER will be issuing certificates to all participants
returning logs.

Like last year, a trophy will be offered to the Tall
Ship AM station that shows up in the most returned
contest logs. To qualify, the trophy winner MUST be
running a transmitter that qualifies as 250 watts
and/or 250 pounds.

The ER Magazine website will have details on all
upcoming operating events.
