[CQ-Contest] Help TCG celebrate 30 years - August NAQP

[K4RO Kirk Pickering]

Greetings fellow contest operators and QSO Party enthusiasts. This 
year’s running of the August North American QSO Parties mark the 30th 
anniversary of the Tennessee Contest Group. In the August 1993 CW 
contest, a group of TN hams banded together, gave themselves a team name 
of “Tennessee Contest Group” and walked off with the top team score. 
Shortly after that, TCG became the official name of an ARRL-affiliated 
club that has grown ever since, keeping Tennessee “radioactive.”

Help us celebrate the occasion and earn yourself a certificate 
acknowledging your effort. How? Make “30 for 30” for TCG. The rules are 
simple.

Make 30 QSOs with TCG members during the August CW and SSB NAQP 
contests, then send your log to “k0ej at arrl.net” for verification. Thirty 
TCG QSOs will earn you a custom certificate. In addition, the non-TN 
station with the most TCG QSOs will win something special from 
Tennessee. Hint — it isn’t an “RC Cola©” or a “Moon Pie©” and you must 
be 21 years of age or older to receive it. It is likely Tennessee’s most 
famous export.

A list of current TCG members can be found here: http://k4tcg.org/roster/

Come celebrate with us in August! Send your NAQP CW and SSB logs to 
k0ej at arrl.net.
