Joe, Bob, et al;
I'm a contester, broadcaster and writer. Been busy trying to handle
promotion on our FD effort here. Will be glad to assist you with this
any way I can.
Thought starters: "Imagine working your DXCC (or a hundred countries)
in a weekend"
"Radiosport requires concentration, accuracy and a winning spirit.
Hone your operating skills"
"The contesting fraternity are some of the finest operators and most
colorful characters in amateur radio"
"Set personal goals, improve your operating skills and earn some fine
operating awards..which look great on the wall of your shack"
"Contests really p**s off the AM ragchewers on 75 meters!"
This is a great idea. Ought to make the finished product available to
local clubs and the League.
73,

I'm putting together a flyer that we can give out at club meetings,
Field Day, any amateur event. It is to help try to get more people into
contesting.
So I'm looking for ideas as to why someone should do contests.
Anyone?

What you want to find is an article written by W2SKE (Major CBS honcho
in the 1950s and 1960s):
The Battle Of The Hams - Sports Illustrated - 6-30-1958
Brief Google surfing leads to dead links.
I think K3ZJ has a live copy (This email copied to Dave).
