And that is really the point - who should pay for it. To me, it is very much a non-issue. I have several CQ WW Region #1 awards for my meager 10 meter SSB/CW QRP efforts and I have received a few in

I came late to this discussion (my bad), but it is done all the time in State QPs. For example, Kansas QP has an opportunity to do a clean sweep of 1X1 calls, Florida is the same, other QPs have litt

That was a nice elegant certificate and the stats breakdown with scores was a very nice touch. I liked it so much, I'm stealing the stats newsletter idea for the South Carolina QSO Party. <grin> Tom,
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 eligi
Sure - why not? An overlay doesn't mean you have to use it, it just is there in case you want to compete against other same class license holders. Then again, it would only pertain to the US so I'm n
