2005 Remembrance Day contest news

Another teaser about this year's Remembrance Day contest, coming up in mid-August.

Chris Edmondson VK3CE/4AA tells us "you'd better get your 10 metre FM gear going, for not only will you be able to work stations within your own state on 10m this year, you can also work stations on 10FM and on SSB without waiting.

"And here's the biggie. VHF entrants have always been able to re-work stations after two hours have elapsed, but from this year, HF entrants will now be able to rework stations on HF after four hours. This year's Remembrance Day contest promises to be the biggest in years."
