[VHFcontesting] IARU Region 1 50MHz contest

[Steve Thompson]

Firstly, I'll apologise if this duplicates information others have 
passed around.

This weekend sees the big pan European 6m contest, 1400 UTC June 15th to 
1400UTC June 16th. As well as most countries having their own national 
contest, there's an overall event run by IARU Region 1.

The standard contest exchange is RS(T), serial number and 6 character 
grid locator. Individual country rules vary a bit but for the IARU 
event, a contact must have the 6 character locator copied off air to be 
valid so please bear this in mind if the band opens from wherever you 
are into EU.

Please spread the word.

Thanks and good dx.
