The GORC Iditarod Challenge is an event where amateur radio operators must
make contacts with nine countries. It is fashioned after the famous 
Iditarod Dogsled Race in Alaska.  Only your sled is a radio and your dogs are antennas!  This
event will take place from November 1st, 2008 until March 31st, 2009.
For additional information just click on the rules.
