HAM HAPPENINGS:  THE K0S STRANGE ANTENNA CHALLANGE

Now here's one that should catch the attention of a lot of you. Erik Weaver
N0EW sent along a note to tell us about the upcoming K Zero-S Strange 
Antenna
Challenge slated for Memorial Day weekend, May 24th to the 26th.

What is a strange antenna challenge you ask?  According to Erik, its an 
event
where antennas are not permitted to be constructed of wire or metal pipe.
Rather, those taking part must use their imagination to design radiators 
that
are untraditional.  Erik says that past antennas have included such items as
metal folding chairs, chicken wire, fences, ladders, and even a trampoline.

If this sounds like a fun way to spend Memorial Day weekend, you can get
