Hi,

I'm looking for interesting stories for the writeup of the ARRL 160M 
contest. I'll bet the stories are as good as the conditions!

All interesting stories are welcome. I will definitely include a section 
with comments like, "Wow, look what I worked!" or some other version of a 
special QSO or opening that was etched in your memory. I will be reviewing 
the 3830 and ARRL web site Soapbox entries, so there is no need to copy 
those comments, unless you want to expand on them.

ATTENTION DX STATIONS -- I will be dedicating more space to DX activity and 
results. Don't know how much will get into QST, but the web story can have 
as much as I want to write. One of the frustrations in responding to 
complaints of DX being ignored is that only a small number of DX logs are 
submitted -- Send in your logs!

I will also expand discussion of US/VE results by geographical area. More 
notable performances from areas outside of the Atlantic coastline will be 
recognized.

Let me know if photos are available -- don't send them until I've had chance 
to see what's out there, and how the results turn out. I'll ask for some 
examples at that time.

Thanks & 73,

Gary, K9AY
