[SECC] Announcement, Spartan Sprint, Monday Night

[John Laney]

Spartan Sprint Contest Monday -

Happy New Year!  The January Spartan Sprint will be held on Monday, 
January 1, 2007 (which is our standard date--the first Monday of the 
month).  It's two hours of fun as you contact other QRP CW stations on 
80, 40, 20, 15, and/or 10 meters.  We hope to recognize single band 
efforts so jump in even if you are on just one band.  The contest starts 
at 9 pm EST, 8 pm CST, 7 pm MST, and 6 pm PST.  That's 0200-0400 UTC.

The Spartan Sprint exchange is RST - State - Power (e.g. 559 ME 5W). 
Contest details and rules are at
http://www.arsqrp.com/ars/pages/spartan_sprints/ss_rules_new.html

We will continue our special recognition for those who operate outdoors. 
  If you operate outdoors, please note it in your Soapbox comments after 
the contest. Also, in your Soapbox comments after the contest, start by 
listing your radio and antenna.  We think everyone would be interested 
in this information.

If it's portable and outdoors, it's Adventure Radio!

NOTE - The deadline for logs is noon on Wednesday, Pacific Time.

After the contest report your summary and score at the autolog at

Good luck on Monday!
