Box 361050 Birmingham, Al 35236. Station is not responsible nor in any manner liable for lost, late, misdirected, incomplete, or illegible entries.

3. Selection: Drawings will be held at announced times to select the winner(s). The chances of winner are dependent upon the number of eligible entries received.

The participant's call must be the designated number in the sequence of calls received. (e.g.,10th caller) to qualify.
