I will let Don K4BEV describe his forum.
Thanks to the Hickory Withe DX Club for allowing us to place the sign-in
sheet on their table.
Let me know who is to get the sheet with the eMail address on it and I
will forward it at once.
Ole Man JEAN W4TYU
The Hickory Withe DX Club also graciously hosted the contest forum, Thanks
again Terry.
The Contest Forum:
Most of the forums that I've been to have really been lectures. Figuring that
I really don't know enough to lecture anyone on contesting, I decided to have
a real forum.
If nothing else; I had a good time.
We had a small group of 6 or 7 and I started the forum with, "What aspect of
contesting do y'all want to talk about?"
The forum was supposed to last an hour. We adjourned an hour and 15 minutes
later (they locked the doors).
Among the discussions: (Many outstanding ideas presented, btw)
ARRL club limits
Station layout
Antennas
Radios
SO2R
Multis
Rules
TCG !
TCG multi opportunities
Other good stuff -- you shoulda been there!
I hope the other participants got as much out of the forum as I did.
A couple of folks weren't TCGrs - they may be soon (although not in the ARRL
club circle!).
