[VHFcontesting] Dates Changed for the 2304 MHz and Up Weekend for the 2006 ARRL International EME Competition

[Henderson, Dan N1ND]

The date for the 2304 MHz and Up weekend for the 2006 ARRL International
EME Competition has been changed to  September 16/17. This changes the
previously announced dates of September 9/10.  The change is due to a
higher moon declination to permit the northern latitude stations longer
moon access while still providing the same moon window for the very
southern latitude stations. It also avoids a conflict on 2304 MHz where
the EME frequencies are the same as the weak signal calling frequency of
2304.1 that will be used during the ARRL September VHF contest.

The weeks for the two 50-1295 MHz EME weekends are unchanged and remain
scheduled for October 14/15 and November 11/12.

Please note that if you have any questions, please email them to
contests at arrl.org instead of to me.  I am now handling different duties
at the ARRL and no longer handling Contests.

Thanks and 73.
