W6SFM 2014 Spring Bug Roundup event (An event for Bug Key users around the world!)

W6SFM On-Air BUG ROUNDUP - Saturday May 17th 2014

Objective: 
This 12-hour event is not a contest; rather it is a time dedicated to celebrating our CW and 
Bug key heritage. Participants are encouraged to get on the air and simply make enjoyable, 
conversational CW QSOs using a Bug style key as the sending instrument. There are no 
points scored in this event, and all who participate are winners.

Once the event has concluded, logs can be submitted to the W6SFM by way of the link 
provided on the clubs Bug Roundup web page. Nominal prizes/certificates will be awarded to: 
the person who had the most QSOs during the 12 hour period; and the person who worked 
the most interesting amount of bug types.
