Scandinavian Activities Contest coming up! 

A great contest with good signals over the pole from a group of super ops. At some times we actually may get a propagation advantage over the East Coasters. And the SAC ops especially like to work the sixes. Info below.

Dear all,

You're most welcome to participate in the upcoming Scandinavian Activity Contest as follows:

* CW: 17-18 September, 12 UTC - 12 UTC
* SSB: 8-9 October, 12 UTC - 12 UTC

Each part of this "Polar Battle" gathers 1000+ contesters from all around the world. As the Nordic hams enter their radio huts en masse, SAC offers you a unique opportunity to work the propagationally challenged Arctic nations and practice your skills.
