[CQ-Contest] 14.300 MHz

[Steve NN2NN]

Dear Contesters,

I have been in many contests over the years. RTTY, CW and SSB. They have helped me sharpen my operating skills.
And they are fun!

I am now a Net Control Station for the Intercontinental Amatuer Traffic Net and the Maritime Mobile Service Network that operate on 14.300 MHz. We assist maritime mobile stations, deployed service personel, missionaries abroad and the general Amatuer Radio community pass emergency, medical and priority type traffic from about 1100 until 0200 UTC daily. Even non amatuer stations with emergencies have been assisted on 14.300 Mhz. 

This posting is to ask you that the next time you operate in a SSB contest to please keep 14.300 MHz in mind when you are looking for a frequency to call CQ. This past weekend with good condx on 20 it was very difficult to pass any traffic.

Thanks for reading this email and hope you did well in the contest.

73,
Steve NN2NN
