Ted,

I think this is an excellent idea.  It will need serious "marketing", 
however, to get the word out to get sufficient participation.  I'd suggest 
that club newsletters carry the idea to their members.  It would also be good 
if the ARRL could encourage it, perhaps in their weekly ARRL Letter when 
pitching SS.
