[RTTY] TARA RTTY Melee - 12-03-05

[MRBILL1953@aol.com]

Greeting's:

 

I hope all of you are gearing up for the TARA RTTY Mêlée this coming  

weekend. This contest is a lot of fun, plus it provides each of you with an  

opportunity to "tune & prune" your station for the ARRL RTTY Roundup come  

January. This contest first entered the sceen back in the early 90's as the 
TARA RTTY Sprint. Since then we've continued to grow thanks to all of our 
dedicated digital contesting friends. 

 

Below you'll find the info for TARA's Mêlée. If you need any additional  

information I'd be more than glad to assist you. Simply drop me an e-mail at 

mailto:melee-manager at n2ty.org

I ask for all you you to please check out our web site for information on  

the TARA Tour'ney. In the  TARA Tour'ney, the contestants are competing for 

the honor of  emerging as the annual "King" or "Queen" of digital contesting. 
The 

scores to achieve this are an aggregate of all their individual  Tour'ney 

credits derived from their scores from the four (4) TARA All Season  
Contests. 

By the way, the Mêlée is part  of the Tour'ney program. You can check this 
out at:

In addition, TARA now sponsors our very own HF "Digital"  Awards  Program. 
The 

TARA-PX and TARA-Grid are two awards that you'll want to display in your 
shack. 
We believe that the TARA-PX is the only Digital Prefix Award available since 
the WPX is SSB and CW only. Plus they're FREE!!

 

     

The TARA-PX Award is a full service award offering Mixed, RTTY and  PSK 

certification. If you feel that you qualify for a  non-listed digital mode, 

please request that we review your information. The full info can be found 
at: 

n2ty.org/seasons/tara_awards.html 

 

Again, I look forward to printing you real soon!
