On the September Contest, I contacted the ARRL contest division about
having my daughter (KC0LTT - little tiny tot) come with me and help operate.
I asked about the family provision.
I was told by the Dan, the Contest Branch Manager, that we could go out
together, and both work everyone. We each had to submit separate logs, but
our contacts would be valid for the contest.
Unfortunately my daughter is getting a little old and dear old Dad is not
as cool as he once was... they grow up so fast.
Go out and pass out some points and have a blast!!
