This Week's Contests:

minutes and under 26 WPM for remainder.  160M is not included in the 
SNS, just 20, 40, and 80.

4.  ARRL Ten Meter Contest.  10M CW/Phone.  48 hours of weekend UTC.
Exchange:  RST + State/Province or serial # for DX or ITU Zone for MM

  5W maximum power.  Exchange:  RST + SPC + Ant Class + CQC# or power. 
Duplicates OK after 30 minutes, so three possible QSOs with same 
station.  Ant Classes:  W (wire), V (vertical), B (beam), P (portable).

8.  80M QRP Fox Hunt.  Same as Thursday night hunts on 40M except 
frequency range is 3550-3570 and on Tuesday nights.

9.  North American QRP CW Club Straight Key/ Bug Sprint.  0130-0330Z 
Tuesday.  20, 40, 80M CW, 5W maximum.  Exchange:  RST + SPC + NAQCC# or 
power.  Double your score by using a straight key.  1 1/2 times your 
score if you use a bug.

Hope everyone has a nice week and weekend.  TCG got out a fine written 
report and certificates for their Sept QSO Party.  They are announcing a 
new club aggregate score competition for next year.  No circle or other 
limitation except that all scores must be submitted either for 
operations within or outside the state of TN.  If some are in and some 
are out, two different scores can be claimed, one for each geographical 
area.

The 10M contest should be a lot of fun this weekend.  Some sort of 
propagation should be available for most of the contest period.
