Hi
I am trying to encourage interest in contesting at my local club Kingdom 
ARS (KARS).  We just had a relatively successful go (for us) at the AFS 
CW and SSB events.
To keep the momentum going I was going to suggest we have a go at Beru 
but as far as I can see the only multi op section is full power and 
unrestricted?  I was really thinking more of multi op, 12hr restricted 
but it seems there is no such section.  We don't have megga antennas and 
high power amps, the operators are either new to contesting or 
relatively inexperienced.  Seems a shame the restricted section doesn't 
allow for multi op club type participation.  I feel the BERU contest is 
a more skillful contest than the Wham - Bam AFS style and might 
demonstrate an alternative type of contest our club.  Is there a way to 
involve multi ops without it being a gung ho eyeballs out effort? :-)
Alex
