Guys, Today I made the decision of operating the CA qso party, that all my friends seem to like so much and guess what I found out? Puerto Rico is not a mult for Californians! But KL7 , KH6 are.. als
Thanks ron! Felipe Felipe, Sorry to hear about this, but there's a simple solution. Wait one week. Then operate in the 48th Annual PENNSYLVANIA QSO Party. KP4 IS a multiplier in PaQP, and it's always
The main reason why the organizers cannot adopt this suggestions right away is that they are people like us, very busy and the time given to the hobby by them is very valuabe in their personal lives.

Randy, Those are great Ideas, but have been around for a bit. I think that It takes a group of experienced contesters to create a committee that can sell this ideas to sponsors so it can be considere
