Salutations,
We've got something cookin' for "The Carolina Weekend", February 27-28,
2016.
The SCQP & NCQP will be giving away an amazing Carolina Style BBQ Dinner
with all
the trimmings. To be eligible for this drawing, you must submit a log in
both the SCQP
and NCQP QSO Parties. We are still working out the details.
NCQP is offering an award for NCQP mobile ops. The mobile op with the
highest QSO
count will be reimbursed for fuel expenses. Never seen this prize out
there in the QP
world..
N4IQ/m (The Multi-Operator, Multi-Transmitter, Multi-Car) mobile caravan
will be rolling
once again this year in the SCQP. Bill N4IQ and his brother Phil, AC4Q
will running high
power CW and Phone from two cars. N4IQ/m won the multi-op mobile
category in the
2015 event.
We've got several SCQP mobile ops who will also be running NC counties
on Sunday. I
believe that we're in for a very exciting QSO Party weekend.
One more award. The Trident Amateur Radio Club, in conjunction with
their Feb 17th,
2015 commemoration of the sinking of the USS Housatonic by the
Confederate Navy's
H.L. Hunley submarine (the first ever successful attack by a submarine)
will also be
offering a special SCQP certificate for spelling HUNLEY during the SCQP.
The criteria
will be working ops in Hampton/Horry, Union, Newberry,
Lee/Lexington/Laurens/Lancaster,
Edgefield and York. N4HLH will be a "wild card" worth two counties on
two bands - one
wild card per band.
The South Carolina QSO Party has gone from small to medium and we looking
forward to joining the top tier of state QPs around the nation. Our
Partners in
North Carolina are as excited about this as we are so join in the fun -
we're looking
forward to seeing you on the air.
Please visit NCQP <http://www.rars.org/ncqsoparty/> and SCQP
<http://scqso.com> websites for all the details.
Best regards,
Tom, W1TEF/4
Chairman,
South Carolina Steering Committee
