We hereby authorize everyone to go to sleep tonight and not wake up until the 21st! Actually, as I explain in the "Oops" column in the February issue (due to arrive on Jan. 20th!), it's all my mother's fault. January 20th is her birthday and she decided she'd like to skip having one this year, so we obliged! The really amazing thing, though, is that absolutely nobody noticed it until sometime in November. By the way, the month is correct in the 2006-2007 calendar, so if you don't have one yet, it's a good reason to call (tomorrow, of course) and order one! Vy 73 and enjoy your day off, Rich W2VU Editor, CQ ---------- Original Message ----------- From: "Floyd Gerald" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thu, 19 Jan 2006 06:10:07 -0600 Subject: Re: [dx-list] CQ Cancels Jan 20, 2006 > Hi Zack > I do know CQ has made calendars for many many years.. > FIRST mistake I am aware of... > -73- > Floyd > November 5 Florida Germany > Manager of WAZ Program > Website > www.cq-amateur-radio.com/wazrules.html > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Alan Zack" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "cq-contest" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "CQ Magazine" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "CQ Communications" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "DX-QSL" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "'dx'" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "DX List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "DX- > News" <dx-news@pro-usa.net>; "GOLIST REFLECTOR" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Cc: "Las Vegas Radio Club" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "NCCC Ref" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "SCCC" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "SCDXC" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "Tower Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2006 9:43 PM > Subject: [dx-list] CQ Cancels Jan 20, 2006 > > For the last year I have been using my 15 Month 2005/2006 CQ Magazine > Calendar for everyday scheduling as well as keeping an eye on when > contest weekends are coming up.
