[RTTY] TARA SKIRMISH Contest Announcement

[MRBILL1953@aol.com]

Greetings: 

It's time to preplan your strategy for the upcoming "TARA Skirmish"  (Digital 
Prefix Contest)
coming up on 16-April-2005. Our fearless  leader "Big Ernie," WM2U is looking 
for huge turnout for this year's  running of the Skirmish, so you better not 
let him down!  
 
If you think you might be a little rusty for the contest, fear not! The  
recently announced FIRST ANNUAL PSK 31 FLAVORS CONTEST, sponsored by the  PODXS 
070 Club will serve as an excellent opportunity for each of us to get our  
station's ready for the "Skirmish."     This is a  six-hour sprint that will allow 
many of us to ready our station for the  contest the week after. For more 
information check out: <_http://hometown.aol.com/n3dqu/psk_31_flavors.htm_

Don't forget, this is the final contest for this year's "Four Season's  
Tour'ney."  It's going to be interesting to see who can take top  honor's in this 
year's Tour'ney. So far the top 10 list are: (1) VE9DX, (2)  N3FX, (3) YV5AAX, 
(4)OK1VSL, (5) W3HF,
