[W8MWA] AM Rally is this weekend

[Spence Graham]

I had a lot of fun last year doing this and actually made several AM
contacts!  PUSH THAT BUTTON ON YOUR RIG THAT SAYS AM!  See below...

The third annual *AM Rally* <http://www.amrally.com/> is just ahead. The
event, which aims to encourage the use of AM on 160, 80, 40, 20, 15, 10,
and 6 meters, gets under way at 0000 UTC on Saturday, February 2 (Friday,
February 1, in US time zones) and continues until 0700 UTC on Monday,
February 4.

The AM Rally is open to any radio amateurs running full-carrier amplitude
modulation using any type of radio equipment — modern, vintage, tube,
solid-state, software-defined, military, boat anchor, broadcast, homebrew,
or commercial. Numerous transceivers in use today offer AM capability. A
lot of hams enjoy restoring and using vintage Amateur Radio equipment.
The *event
website* <http://www.amrally.com/> has complete AM Rally details, contact
information, award categories, logging, and tips on how to get the most out
of your station equipment in AM mode.

*Contact* <n1bcg at internetwork.com> Clark Burgard, N1BCG, for more
information.

The event is sponsored by Radio Engineering Associates (*REA*
<http://www.radioassociates.com/>), in cooperation with ARRL, which
supports all modes of Amateur Radio operation. W1AW will play a leading
role in the event, as it has for the past 2 years.
