The email below is a response to a message I sent to
A&E. They have a program called "The Competition"
that covers oddball competitions, such as BBQ cook-
offs and the like.
Well, what competition is more oddball than ham radio
contesting? If a few people sent pictures of their
antenna farms and invited them to film them in CQWW
this fall, maybe we could get some free publicity for this
thing we love.
