Now here is an interesting contest, especially for people who already 
own antennas such as the Buddy Pole.

Subject: [QRP-L] Rapidly Deployable Amateur Radio Contest April 6th


http://radar-america.blogspot.com/

The RaDAR-America contest is an event aimed at promoting the use of 
Rapidly
Deployable Amateur Radio stations throughout North and South America. 
This
contest is for all licensed radio amateurs. A choice is made prior to 
the
contest to participate in one of the defined categories. The points 
system
is so structured as to encourage portable operation, especially 
moveable
stations. The rule structure is very close to that formulated by the
founder of the contest idea: Eddie ZS6BNE This contest will take place 
at
the same time in South Africa (the Nation from which the idea 
originated),
as it will here in the Americas.

The contest periods are the first Saturday of April and first Saturday 
of
November starting at 14:00 UTC and ending at 18:00 UTC  (4 hours).

Consider participating. Many categories to choose from. I plan to 
operate
in the pedestrian mobile category.
