I would have thought that by going the CW route you are specialising a
little bit from the off for most club members.

How about the CQWPX SSB at the end of March; I bet you could rustle up a
unique Callsign ; and there may be more scope for picking a  better section

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
