Announcing the Kansas City DX Club's 2013
N0SS Memorial Contest
In memory of Tom Hammond, N0SS (SK) - a life member and great friend of the Kansas City DX Club, we are excited to announce a yearlong contest to encourage friendly competition among our members in the many interesting contests available on the bands this year.
Tom was a great contester, and mentored many hams, young and old, in all the facets of radiosport - procedures, strategies, tactics and especially contest behaviour ethics. We encourage all members to enter this year. We know the experienced contesters will be glad to share their expertise with any who request it - especially those who are just getting started in this interesting aspect of our hobby. Plaques and certificates will be awarded to high scorers in several of our categories.
Check out a contest calendar, make plans to dive in and have some fun! The rules for our competition can be found here - or just use the 'N0SS Contesting Contest' link under the Activities heading in the navigation bar on the left side of this page.
Good luck to all!
