northern WI counties. All welcome..fill out your county hunter needs. I've
worked many European's in this event in recent years.

Gentlemen & Ladies,
Start your power supplies in preparation for the 2005 Wisconsin QSO Party.
Get those cloud-heater wire antennas up and rotate your verticals toward
the Great State of Wisconsin.
The party is this Sunday, March 13, from noon to 7 p.m. Central Time--and
you're all invited. Dress casually; no tie necessary. Get on for as long as
you can and pass out multiple QSOs to the deserving. Here's the poop:
Wisconsin QSO Party - Phone/CW - sponsored by the West Allis RAC from
1800Z Mar 13 - 0100Z Mar 14.
Frequencies (MHz ): CW - 3.550, 3.705, 7.050, 14.050, 21.050, 10-meters;
Phone - 3.890, 7.230, 14.290, 21.350, 28.400; All modes -
6/2 meters, UHF. No repeater QSOs.
Categories: SO, MS, MM and Mobile.
Mobile operators may not operate on county lines.
Exchange: S/P/C or WI county.
QSO Points: Phone - 1 pt, CW - 2 pts. (PSK 31 counts for 2 pts.)
Score: QSO pts x WI counties (max 72) + S/P/C (WI stations only) x 2 (< 5
W), 1.5 (<150 W).
WI mobiles/portables add 500 bonus points for each county with 12 or more QSOs.
For more information: http://www.warac.org.
Logs due Apr 13 to k9kr@arrl.net (in WARAC Cabrillo format - see Web site)
or Wisconsin QSO Party, West Allis RAC, PO Box 1072, Milwaukee, WI 53201.
The only necessary item in the exchange is your QTH: county in Wis., State
or Province. A county-hunter friend tells me to please add a quick 5/9 or
599 so that it counts as a full QSO. Not a problem; I've already entered it
into WriteLog which has a nice Wis. QSO Party module.
I don't know how many mobiles we'll have roaming the state. We've done well
in the past.
I'll be working fixed from my home QTH.
Hope to hear y'all on Sunday.
73,
George
