[SEDXC] CQ-IR Contest, you would win an expenses paid vacation to Kinnitty castel, Ireland.

[Keith LaBorde (K4KAL)]

I came across an interesting blurb in World Radio today.
(Page 43, October 2007)
This looks like it would be fun, and would not be all that difficult to get 75 Q's.

Info from article...

In 2007 the IRTS celebrates the 75th anniversary of its founding in 1932.  As part of its jubilee celebrations the Society is organising an International Radio Contest, “CQIR - Ireland Calling”.
CQIR is a once-off event with a difference - overseas entrants with 75 or more QSOs have the opportunity to win a trip to Ireland.
CQIR is a 24-hour, single-operator HF CW/SSB contest on the weekend of 29th/30th September 2007.  As this is the fifth full weekend in the month, there is no clash with any established event.
CQIR is a celebration of both the IRTS Jubilee and the “Irish” amateur-radio community worldwide.  It's where the Irish, at home and abroad, work the World - and where those of Irish descent identify themselves by including their ancestral county in the exchange, for example: County Limerick, County Antrim etc.

See ya on the bands,
Keith, K4KAL
