From the ARRL web site news:
>Contester's Rate Sheet celebrates inaugural year (Mar 11, 2003) -- Do you need
>more than just a list of upcoming contests? If so, The ARRL Contester's Rate
>Sheet is the publication for you. The Rate Sheet is celebrating its first year
>of providing a variety of timely contesting information, and as editor Ward
>Silver, N0AX, points out, the price--free--fits most ARRL members' budgets.
>"I'm surprised at the number of subscribers--7210 for the February 26
>issue--and that list continues to grow at a rate of about 200 per issue," he
>said. "I've really enjoyed this first year at the helm and hope to see the
>newsletter continue to grow and evolve." In addition to a list of upcoming
>contests, each issue of the bi-weekly e-mail publication includes log deadline
>information and notices, bulletins and press releases from the world of
>contesting, links to results, technical and technique advice, and
>conversational commentary aimed at the contester. Silver said the while most
>readers use the contest data sections, the technique and commentary sections
>of the newsletter generate the most reader response. He added that he's always
>looking for comments and submissions for the Rate Sheet. Silver said he hopes
>to get more input from contest managers and would like to review more products
>useful to contesters. <http://www.arrl.org/contests/rate-sheet/>The
