Also, the Makrothen RTTY Contest, 
http://home.arcor.de/waldemar.kebsch/The_Makrothen_Contest/The_Makrothen_Contest.html
 
will be this weekend as well.  Fortunately, the NA RTTY Sprint, 
http://www.ncjweb.com/sprintrules.php is held, 0000z to 0400z, during 
one of the required off times, 0000z to 0800z, in the Makrothen RTTY Contest.
