[Tom Baugh]

This has already been questioned......  it says" NON-AMATEUR MEANS" this
puts in question whether  packet is amateur means doesn't it?

I decided not to submit a claimed score for the 2001 Poisson d'Avril...

There are many unclaimed scores left from previous years, so I've instructed
the P d'A committee to pick the highest score still available.

Gary, K9AY


P.S. -- If you haven't heard, Gettysburg, PA was just awarded the 2004  50th
Anniversary Poisson d'Avril, to be held in conjunction with a re-enactment of
the famous Civil War battle.   There will also be a re-enactment of the 1990
WRTC, performed by the winners, with support from other surviving contestants
of that historic battle.

Please mark your calendars well in advance.  This event promises to be a
dramatic preview of ham radio contesting in the future!
