[RTTY] P49X Compeition

[Ed Muns]

P49X will be active from 2-9 January, including the ARRL RTTY Roundup.  All
26 HF band-modes will be worked.  During Roundup, of course, only 5
band-modes will be active (80/40/20/15/10 RTTY).  Outside of Roundup, those
5 band-modes will be lower in priority than the other 21.

Club Log and LotW will be updated at least daily throughout this week.  Club
Log's P49X log will temporarily show only the QSOs during this week.  The
current 145K QSOs will be cleared with the first upload on 2 January and
then restored on 10 January.  Note that the Roundup log will not be uploaded
to LotW until after the log submittal deadline of 7 February 2017.

The top 5 stations on each continent's Club Log Leaderboard (for 2-9 January
2017) are eligible for their choice of a bottle of Muns Vineyard wine,
shipped to a US address.  (Shipping a single bottle of wine outside the US
is problematic and very expensive.)

P4 is quite active throughout the year, in all major CW/SSB/RTTY contests as
well as general DXing by residents and visitors.  The only obstacle to your
working P4 on any particular band-mode should be propagation and your
station capability, not activity.

Happy New Year and see you on the band-modes!
