Contest Calendar
If you use Bruce Horn’s (WA7BNM’s) Contest Calendar website, you should notice a new feature: the site now includes a 5-Week Calendar. It’s a list of contests similar to the 12-Month Calendar but designed to show only those contests in the current week (Monday-Sunday), plus the following four weeks. Contests that are held every week are listed in a separate section to make it easier to view the weekend contests.
Here’s a link to the new calendar:
