Failure to respond to the initial contact within one (1) hour of notification will result in disqualification, and the Station will select another Finalist from all eligible entries, until there are five (5) verified Finalists.

Station’s decisions as to the administration and operation of the Contest and the selection of the potential winner are final and binding in all matters related to the Contest.
