Dear SPARC members and friends,

SPARC is at it again! I am happy to announce the SPARC 2016 Radio Giveaway Contest! This time we are going to give away a UHF/DMR Handheld Transceiver to help expand interest in digital Amateur Radio. The rules for the contest are as follows:
The prize for this contest will be a Tytera MD - 380 (or equivalent), a UHF/DMR Handheld Transceiver.
The prize is being supplied by the Shore Points Amateur Radio Club. Each participant in the contest will be eligible to win this prize.
The prize for this contest will awarded by a drawing that will commence at 8:00 PM on October 20, 2016 at our regularly scheduled club meeting.
Chances for the drawing will be earned by checking into the SPARC Wednesday night nets.
One chance will be awarded to each participant checking in with their personal call sign for each net on which they check in, starting with the net on August 3, 2016. This will continue for each Wednesday night net up to and including the net on October 5, 2016. In the event that the repeater on 146.985 MHz goes off the air, the net (or nets) will be continued on the SPARC repeater on 443.250 MHz.
This will be a total of 10 nets over the course of 10 weeks, allowing each participant the opportunity to accumulate as many as, and a maximum of, 10 chances in the drawing. A minimum of four chances will have to be earned in order to be included in the drawing. This means that you will have to check into at least four Wednesday night nets during this time period in order to qualify to win the radio.
Attendance at our meeting the night of the drawing is encouraged, but will not be required to win a prize in this contest
The winner of the drawing for the prize will immediately be announced on the club repeater on 146.985 MHz. In the event that the winner of the drawing is not in attendance at the meeting, he or she will have two minutes (that's 120 seconds) to respond on this frequency in order to claim their prize. If the winner does not respond in that time, another drawing will immediately be held from the remaining chances. This will continue until a winner is present or claims their prize on the air within two minutes of it being announced.
Once the drawing is complete, the winner will be awarded their prize by a club officer. If the winner is not present, arrangements will be made for the prize to be personally presented to the winner by a club officer at a time and place of mutual convenience.
Good luck to all and 73's,
The SPARC Club Nets are held @ 8pm on the following nights ---- Wednesday Night on 146.985 MHz (-) pl 146.2 ---- Friday Night Simplex Net on 146.560 Mhz ---- Sunday Night on 443.250 Mhz (+) pl 146.2 ..
