Just a reminder of the CQ WPX RTTY contest this weekend.

entire time. Spotting assistance is permitted in all categories.
Rules at:
http://www.cqwpxrtty.com/rules.htm
This is one of the big contests of the year and participation will be
huge. There are many categories to choose from. Expect wall to wall
stations when bands are open.
Here is a link to all-time contest records. They can be filtered by
continent, country and call area for US and some countries.

Hope to see you there!

Thanks, Bill, for cheerleading this weekend's event!
Point of clarification, though ...
Single-ops are encouraged to operate as much of the 48 hours as they desire.
The 30-hour "limit" is not on operating, but simply on the official score
calculation.
If you're having fun, keep going! Whatever you do, never delete QSOs from
your log. This goes for dupes or QSOs beyond your 30-hour score calculation
period. Doing so may result in penalties for either you or the other
station, or both.
