The ARRL RTTY Roundup kicks off at 18:00 UTC on January 5, 2008. You will find
the rules here: http://www.arrl.org/contests/rules/2008/rtty.html
Now might be a good time to review and compare your old RU logs to look at your
"performance" from previous years. What were your strong hours? When did you
take your two 3-hour breaks? What were your strong states and provinces?
Using the ARRL Roundup Log Analyzer you will find tables and charts that
provide the answers. You can download a free copy here:

Using the ARRL Roundup Contest Scheduler you can plan your strategy for this
year's event. You can download a free copy from here:

Both of these tools were created in Excel 2003 but should work with any
version. If you don't have the Excel program, you can download a free viewer
from here:

I'll be looking for you in the contest this weekend!
