About the Makrothen RTTY Contest
Makrothen (Makrovqen) is an ancient Greek word meaning ?great distance? 
or ?some distance away?.

Date and Time
The contest takes place on the second full weekend of October each year. 
The contest dates for 2019 are Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th October 
2019, with three separate periods: Saturday 00:00-08:00 UTC and 
16:00-24:00 UTC and Sunday 08:00-16:00 UTC.  A station may participate 
in all three periods and should submit one combined log for all periods.

Objective
For amateurs around the world to contact as many other amateurs as 
possible during the three periods of operation using RTTY.


I have attached details about the Makrothen RTTY Contest in both word
