[Fourlanders] contest update

[Bob Lear]

It looks like we'll have a few for the workday on Saturday to get things 
going.

One thing I'm now concerned about though is that I haven't really heard 
much about what if anything we are going to do about an FM station.  
Someone other than me is going to have to take the lead on that and also 
one of the crucial things that will need to be done is some publicity up 
in that area.  That was Ryan's formula for making lots of FM QSO's:  the 
publicity.  I'm sure we can come up with plenty of antennas and whatever 
equipment will be needed and I'm currently planning to have an extra 
military mast available to put up some FM antennas and we also have a 
spare rotator and probably whatever feedlines we might need but we need 
a volunteer to do all this and I"m sorry but it just can't be left on 
me.  This needs to get started right now as we are down to a month and 
many of us have Huntsville and Shelby weekends coming up.

It looks like we've got enough trailer pullers and a few other ops 
signed up but it is still pretty slim right now with only 10 or 11 
committed.

Let's get something going.  Bob
