Announcing W6SFMs BUG ROUNDUP

The Samuel F. Morse Amateur Radio Club, a Sacramento, California based CW
enthusiast club wanted a special time to bring bug operators together on
the air. In the same spirit as ARRLs Straight Key Night, participants are
encouraged to make simple, conversational, “chewing-the-fat� QSOs using
their bug type key. This is an opportunity to exercise, share and exhibit
your personalized fist. This is NOT a contest. Simply Call CQ BR so folks
know you are a Bug Roundup Participant. Grab that bug, clean those
contacts, and let’er fly! Let’s hear that “Banana Boat / Lake Erie Swing or
that commercial KPH/WCC quality fist.

Reserve the day! Saturday May 16th, 2015

07:00 AM to 07:00 PM Pacific Time (LOCAL)

1400 UTC through Sunday 1400 UTC

For more information and to help assist in spotting, potentially increasing
QSOs, an On-line chat window will be available at the bottom of Bug Roundup
home page located at www.w6sfm.com/Bug_RoundupÂ* We hope to hear you all on
the air!
