You can call it \nsomething else as I had to do when we had the AO-40 Birthday Bash. When \nI called it a contest, it was strictly frowned upon and the name was \nchanged. If I remember, it was a one or two week event to make contacts \non the first anniversary of the satellite's launch.\n\nWhen you have an event, it must be something that is available to all \nsatellite users worldwide, not just an event for those on one continent \nor country. That is why all the awards that AMSAT-NA offers as well as \nsome other AMSAT's are not called contests. They are operating \nachievements and normally do not have a end of life. The AO-51 51 on 51 \naward was an event that lasted a year but did not require anything \nspecial other than using the satellite to make contacts with 51 \ndifferent stations. You can see where this is going vs. having a true \ncontest.\n\n73...bruce\nAMSAT Director Contests and Awards\n\nOn 12/13/2008 2:01 AM, [email protected] wrote:\n> With the wx getting more \"cabin feavorish\", the voices in my head are saying we should have an impromptu AMSAT contest where the exchange would be your grid square and your AMSAT member number.
