[SECC] Announcment, RSGB 160M Contest this November

[John T. Laney III]

The RSGB Contest Committee runs a short 160m CW contest each November,
which has become very popular over the years.  We have made a change
this year, so that instead of a "UK works the world" format, this is now
"Europe works the world".  This is designed to increase the interest
level and to improve participation.  The new rules are at:
http://www.rsgbcc.org/hf/rules/2011/r2nd-160m-2011.shtml

A quick summary:

19-20 November 2011, 21:00 - 01:00 UTC
1810-1870kHz.  CW only.
Send: RST + Serial number.  UK stations also send a 2-letter District Code
Score 2 points per contact, plus 5 points for each new DXCC Country, and
5 points for each new UK District

Please give this new version of the contest a try, and get the news out
to other 160m enthusiasts.

73,

Ed Taylor, GW3SQX
Chairman, RSGB Contest Committee
