[TOEC] Scandinavian Activity Contest - A proposal

[LA4YW - Liv]

Thanks for your comments, and i agree with Jukka, the proposal sounds 
nice but I dont think this will help to improve anything. More people 
makes thing harder to agree on...
About changing date for SAC CW, the first weekend in October is a very 
busy weekend for contesters even if its not the biggest contests running 
thou.
Btw, SAC CW always generates a lot more logs than SAC SSB, so maybe its 
not the date which is wrong?

>>BACKGROUND
>>During an informal contest meeting held in Stockholm, the 
>>17:th of November 2005, the Scandinavian Activity Contest 
>>(SAC) was discussed. All participants agreed that the SAC 
>>contest is a valuable contest to promote and make more popular 
>>than it is today. Two proposals came up.

>>CONTEST DATES
>>We propose that the contest dates for SAC CW and SAC SSB are 
>>changed to the following dates. This is a very urgent wish in 
>>order to avoid having SAC SSB and CQWW RTTY at the same weekend.
>>
>>SAC SSB: third weekend in September
>>SAC  CW: first weekend in October

>>CONTEST COMMITTEE
>>We propose a SAC Contest Comittee. The members of the 
>>committee from each country, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden, 
>>are the national contest manager and one additional person. In 
>>total the committee will consist of eight individuals. The 
>>chairman is the contest manager from one of the countries and 
>>the chairman is changed once every year among the member countries.

>>The committe is suggested to be responsible for the handling 
>>of (for example):
>>
>>- Rule changes
>>- Shared log checking responsibility and timely
>> presentations of results.  In order to lessen
>> the burden on single individuals, the committee
>> will contribute in this area every year.
