Good points Greg...OK you convinced me  I'll get the other station =
running, sucker a local into coming out, and see what I can do.

  Dan,

  If the SECC Club score is going to grow, its going to come from the =
following categories:

  1)  New members.   We have to continuously and aggressively seek out =
new contest stations in GA, AL, SC, TN that are within the defined =
radius of the SECC. These are the guys who show up in the contest logs =
or in the box score without a club affiliation.

  2.)  Guys in the club who have "little contest scores"  developing =
into guys who have "a little bit bigger contest score"  thru additional =
practice, indoor station upgrades, outdoor station upgrades, contest =
know how, etc.  The guys who put up the big numbers are not going to =
improve their score by 50 to 100% but those percentages are possible for =
someone in a "small station"

  3.)  Guys with big scores that "keep on keeping on"

  Just my ramblings but I'd like to see the SECC stay the way it =
is...besides, I got a 10% raise at work when I told them I was the VP of =
the SECC.  If the SECC goes away, I'd have to give that back..

    I don't know what the exact Alabama number is.  I joined SECC to =
help out with my little contest scores.  If you guys don't want me I can =
leave.  Not trying to be a smart alec here but I'm no big gun contester, =
so my loss wont be missed much.

      I think this change was written for the benefit of California
      Texas and Florida.  Not us.  Or YCCC or FRC.

      I vote stay the way we are.

      Of course, that's a view from an Alabama guy who would
      need to form an Alabama Contest Club.  Let's see...
      do we EVEN have 10 contesters in my section?

        Note that a club cannot do both175-mile and ARRL section.

        I am in favor of keeping the 175-mile definition.  We would lose =
more
        good members from AL, SC and NC than we would gain from only
        including the Georgia section.

        Anyone else care to comment?
