You are invited to participate in the 1st Annual 2 Meter FM Challenge on Oct 4, 2014, from 1 -5 PM Texas Time, sponsored by the Katy Amateur Radio Society.
The purpose of this contest is to introduce Radiosports to a larger population of hams, especially newly licensed amateurs and those without HF privileges. The goal is to make as many two-way simplex QSO's as possible without the aid of a repeater. Working a contest like this is good practice for a real emergency, where local conditions are likely to be frantic and fraught with tesion. You don't need a world class station to participate. A 5 watt HT will do. The emphasis is on ingenuity and having fun. Finding a good location and a good antenna will be the key to success in this event. A copy of the rules is attached to this announcement. You may also download a copy from www.katyars.com .
