**FLASH NEWS** NPR program on Contesting and Radiosport 6am Saturday

Allen Brier N5XZ
Just heard today that NPR will have a program on Ham Radio Contesting and
Radiosport tomorrow (Saturday) morning at 6:00 am on KUHT 88.7 in Houston.
It's possible that the same program might air at the same time on other NPR
affiliates in other parts of the country.  Should be interesting!

The vast majority of amateur radio operators are male.  The primary
"competition gene" in the human genome is on the Y-chromosome.  Ergo,
males will make a sport out of anything ... islands, summits,
continents, zones ... even the weight of your radio.

The program is "Only a Game" and is produced at WBUR in Boston.  There's
a summary on the WBUR web site featuring Scott Redd.

CQP - yet another radiosport event -- you can win California wine in
this one.
