Greetings to All Contesters with 160M Blood in their Arteries
The Stew Perry TopBand Distance Challenge, sponsored by The
Boring Amateur Radio Club, is less than 24 hours away. Go memorize
the breathtaking and unique rules at http://www.kkn.net/stew/
Then read the list below of Radio Stalwarts and the categories
that they have sponsored. Focus on which plaques you wish to
compete for and attempt to win. Then remember when you submit
your log to include that category and perhaps the sponsor's call
in your soapbox musings. Please appreciate fully each category,
as some have more subtleties than others in their construct.

days
after the contest has ended. All these plaques are serious and are to be
won by the best qualified per the conditions and The Boring Amateur Radio
Club.
The Boring Amateur Radio Club thanks all the RF men and women who
add spice to The Stew by simply showing up for either a short time or all
night.
See you in The Stew!
