Straight key night, Houston style is off and running again. Mark your calendars for the second Tuesday of each month from 7 PM to 8:30 PM. The frequency is 3540~3550 + or -. This is amateur night, so slow key, fast key, rusty key, good fist, bad fist, any fist.

Keep track of the number of events worked - these will be added to your score. For example, if you had 10 TDXS contacts, 15 NARS contacts, and 5 OO contacts, and worked 10 events, your score would be 20 for TDXS, 25 for NARS, and 15 for OO. Keep the logs until after the December 2007 event, then submit them to Cal White, WF5W.
