Reminder: Countdown is on for ARS' Flight of the Bumblebees on Sunday

[Chris Kantarjiev K6DBG]

Sunday, almost 200 “bee” QRP field operators will be out on the trail during the
Adventure Radio Society’s annual four-hour Flight of the Bumblebees.

Held yearly on the last Sunday of July, 2008’s is July 27. For complete details,
visit the ARS Web site at:

http://www.arsqrp.pbwiki.com

Click on Flight of the Bumblebees on the right hand side of the home page.

This is a four hour event, running from 10:00 PDT / 11:00 MDT / 12:00 CDT / 1:00
EDT to 2:00 PDT / 3:00 MDT / 4:00 CDT / 5:00 EDT. Thus, the hours of operation
accommodate all four time zones. No matter where you live, there is time for the
Bumblebees to travel to their sites, set up their stations, operate the contest,
and travel back to their cars.

Both home-based and portable operations are encouraged. Participants who want to
operate in the Bumblebee category apply to Adventure Radio Society for Bumblebee
status. ARS assigns each Bumblebee a Bee number. Bumblebees agree to walk, bike,
boat or some other self-powered means to get to their sites. The distance
traveled to the site is at the Bumblebee's discretion.

Bumblebees add "/BB" to their calls.

There is no limit on the number of Bumblebees. You may apply for, and receive, a
Bee number at any time, up to two days before the contest.

We look forward to seeing you in the 2008 Flight of the Bumblebees.
