*To ALL radio amateurs:*Time to have some fun. The Hawai'i QSO Party will
soon be held again this year, and you're invited. It's time to get
“radio-active”. The rules have been revised to be more in - tune with other
state QSO parties, but it's basically the same as before. Get on the air,
make a bunch of QSOs, have some radio fun.Please take a look at the web
site: http://www.hawaiiqsoparty.org/The event starts at 0400Z Aug 26 and
runs through 0359Z Aug 28; That's 48 hours total, and you can operate as
much of that time as you want.Hawaiian stations work anyone, anywhere, on
any legal HF mode: CW, SSB, or any of the many digital modes. If you're
not in paradise, concentrate on working Hawai'i.Since HI has only five
counties, we've expanded the usual QSO party multiplier list into regions
which makes this more challenging. http://hawaiiqsoparty.org/Rule
s/HQP/QTHIDs.htmlPlease note that using a spotting system is OK. The object
is to work more KH6 stations and this is a very good way to find them.
Please do not “self-spot”. That's not considered good gamesmanship and will
lead to a DQ.The Hawai`i QSO Party is an event to promote HF operation from
the unique Hawai`i destination in the Pacific. Hawai`i is an ARRL DXCC
entity as well as the nation's 50th state needed for the ARRL WAS Award.Aloha
& 73, Alan AD6E / KH6TU
