Spartan Sprint Contest Monday -
The September Spartan Sprint will be held on September 6, 2004 (which is our
standard
date--the first Monday of the month). It's two hours of fun as you contact
other QRP CW stations on 80, 40, 20, 15, and/or 10 meters.
The contest starts at 9 pm EDT, 8 pm CDT, 7 pm MDT, and 6 pm PDT and
runs for
two hours. That's 0100-0300 UTC.
The Spartan Sprint exchange is RST - State - Power (e.g. 559 MI 5W).
Note - If you are maritime mobile at sea use 'MM' for your
state-province-country in the exchange.

This month's Sprint overlaps the last two hours of the Michigan QRP Contest.
The exchange is similar, so you may be able to work two contests at the same
time. Michigan QRP Contest rules are at http://www.qsl.net/miqrpclub
We will continue our special recognition for those who operate outdoors.
If you
operate outdoors, please note it in your Soapbox comments after the contest.
After the contest report your summary and score at the autolog at
www.ARSqrp.com/ars/ss_log.html
In your Soapbox comments after the contest, start by listing your radio and
antenna. We think everyone would be interested in this information.
Good luck on Monday!
