Logs due May 19 via the contest score entry form at _http://n2ty.org/seasons/tara_dpx_score.html. Don't forget, this is the final contest for this year's "Four Season's Tour'ney." It's going to be interesting to see who is going to take top honor's in this year's Tour'ney. In the TARA Tour'ney, the contestants are competing for the honor of emerging as the annual King or Queen of the digital modes. The scores to achieve this are an aggregate of all their individual Tour'ney credits derived from their scores from the four (4) TARA All Season Contests. Each contest is a separate entity and has its own awards. The results of each will be displayed on the Tara Results web page where you will find the results of all the contests for the Tour'ney year as they are run. The results so far can be seen at: _http://www.n2ty.org/seasons/tara_tourney_results.html If you want to learn more about the Tour'ney please go to: _http://www.n2ty.org/seasons/tara_tourney.html For all of you that love to chase awards TARA has you covered! Back in 2004 - TARA proudly introduced its ALL NEW "Four Season's Awards Program" which consists of the TARA-PX and the TARA Grid Awards. The TARA-PX is the only Digital Prefix Award available since the WPX is SSB and CW only! The TARA-PX Award is a full service award offering Mixed, RTTY and PSK certification. If you feel that you qualify for a non-listed digital mode, please request that we review your information. The TARA-Grid Award is an excellent companion to our Four Seasons, Grid-Dip Contest. All contest entries qualify for inclusion in your TARA-Grid Award. You need only 300 different four(4) digit Grid Squares to claim your Basic certificate. In line with our OnLine recognition program, you will find all the individual award statistics on our Award Record Web Site(s). These can be accessed below under each Award heading.....another system that TARA is pioneering. Your operating prowess will be there for the entire world to see, instead of only visitors to your shack. Come check out our awards program at: _http://www.n2ty.org/seasons/tara_awards.html With our new "Four Season's Contesting & Awards Program" we want to become your #1 contesting & award program for "ALL" seasons!
