[TVARC] Villages On the Air VOTA First Draft

[John Ellis]

GM all,

Villagers on the air.

We could find something significant that
happened in the Villages and use that to
set the date. With a little planning
we could make it a national contest. Maybe
the Villages might want to print qsls for us?
Or certificates for working 15 villagers? I
could get some QST real estate of we give
them enough time to get it published.
I thought about special 1X1 callsigns but
the special 1X1 callsign but the two "Ls"
would prevent that (unless one station
stayed on FT-8.

Thoughts ?????????????
73,
John, NP2B
