Everyone has seen the WA7BNM and SM3CER contest calendars posted earlier today.  Thanks to Don W4OC for working this out so we can spice up the reflector a bit in color with HTML and Rich Text format.  I would like to provide a contest calendar for you so I would like to know your preferences.  Which calendar do you prefer?  WA7BNM or SM3CER?  The WA7BNM would be posted weekly and the SM3CER calendar would be monthly.  I could also post both?
 
Please let me know your preference and any comments.  Thanks
