[NCC] W1AW/8 Scheduling

[Jim K8MR via NCC]

,As you likely know, W1AW/8 is coming to Ohio on August 20 (8pm EDT 
Tuesday 8/19).

The scheduling process will shortly be opening, at the MRRC web site 
www.madriverradioclub.org

The schedule is now shown there. To reserve slots, you will need to be 
registered in order to log in. To be registered, send me a request by 
email. Include a phone number where you can be reached while operating, 
to be able to reach you should issues arise in real time. I will 
register you manually and send you a notice when I have done so.

Today I will be on the road, leaving the WRTC hotel site this morning 
to pick up my wife on Cape Cod and then off to my daughter's in NJ. 
Therefore it will take some time to get back to you. On the other hand, 
the initial group will get their first crack all at the same time.

The relevant band/modes during the Ohio QSO Party on Saturday and 
Sunday have been blocked out. They are not yet assigned; I will be 
looking people and stations to fill those slots. I have some ideas on 
ways to do it, but I am open to proposals. One thing that is certain is 
that W1AW/8 will not be eligible for normal awards. I will have more on 
W1AW/8 in OhQP later.

I'm looking forward to us all having a lot of fun with Ohio's part in 
the ARRL's Centennial celebration!
