This Week's Contests:
Remember that the 10-10 Club has one already running and going through
the week and that there are special stations to work in the original 13
colonies to celebrate Independence Day. These latter stations are
signing K2A - K2M.
1. Straight Key Century Club European Sprint (SKS). Thursday, July 4,
1200-2100Z. Work everyone, not just Europeans. Use a mechanical key.
160-6M CW. Exchange: RST, Name, SPC, SKCC# or "None." Note that in
this one the mults are DXCC countries rather than SPC. You can also
operate beginning at 1845Z and as late as 2115Z if you don't send over
12 WPM in these extra 30 minutes. If you use them at 12 WPM, you
increase your score and encourage newer and slower guys to get their
feet wet. Suggested frequencies: 7029, 14050, 21050, 28050. Bonus
points for working "C" stations once per contest and "T" stations once
per contest and for every QSO with a specially designated station, who
doesn't seem to have been designated yet, so I guess there won't be one.
2. Michigan QRP Club July 4th Sprint. 2300Z Thursday through 0300Z
Friday. 160-6M CW. Exchange: RST + SPC + MiQRP# or power.

catch more openings this month.
