2015 was another record year for the New York QSO Party. Competitive logs were
received from 314 Ops and there were active stations from all 62 New York
Counties. There were some very big scores and the new award structure worked
extremely well.
2015 was the first year that we used rigorous log checking software. That
process included some unexpected hiccups and caused a significant delay in
finalizing the scores. In the past, scores were ready for plaques to be made
in March of the following year. For 2015, it wasn't until July that we had
scores in place.
On the positive side, the log adjudication process is now really good(!) and
the plaque vendor is nearing completion on all the plaques. We'll deliver the
plaques to the winners between now and mid September. NYQP plaques are truly
beautiful and they look great in the shack! I think they are the best in the
business.
Please take a minute today to review the 2015 results. Here is a link to the

Congratulations to the Winners and All Participants!
We're grateful to NYQP's primary sponsor, the members of The Rochester DX
