Greetings 160M Contesters and Pretenders, The event is under way. RF is being unleashed all about the globe. If you've forgotten what to do with the log post contest or if you wonder about a specific rule you might have fractured then motor on over to: http://www.kkn.net/stew/ Listed below are the current plaques and sponsors. If you have a blinding flash of revelation, that wasn't caused by accidentally turning off your AGC, and you wish to honor some facet of this contest, it is not too late to sponsor a plaque and join this group. Just email me after you've recovered a bit and we can make your plaque happen. It is never too late for a plaque.
