Hello all:  It seems the NEQP boys got a better turn out than most state 
QSO parties do.  Too bad I have had all counties in New England 
confirmed for more than 30 years.  The Ind QSO Party was also well 
attended, particularly by Ind mobiles.  The CH QSO Party seemed to have 
more activity than has been the case for the past several years.  I 
don't have computer software to log that one by computer and doubt I 
will find time to send in a paper log, but I did get about 8 new 
counties from around the country in the CH test and one from Indiana 
(thanks KJ9C/M).  The Welcome to Europe and ARI (Italy) contests 
generated some DX activity, the latter maybe more on SSB than CW when I 
was listening.  Here are the claimed scores from our members (plus NF4A 
who is subscribed to our reflector and I wanted especially to credit him 
with beating my HP score with his LP score with fewer hours also).

K4BAI    57    15   53     6,837    5.25   SOHP
WB6BWZ   46     4   40     3,840    5.7    SOQRP

Spartan Sprint (QRP)
Call    80 M  40 M  20 M  All Bands Hours  Category
K4BAI   14    44    12    70        2.0    Heavy (assumed to be 30#)
WB6BWZ   5     9     4    18        1.9    Heavy (assumed to be 30#)

There are a lot of contests this upcoming weekend.  Armed Forces Day 
with crossband QSOs with MARS stations is Saturday (not the real Armed 
Forces Day, but the communications part of it).  There is a new 
Mid-Atlantic QSO Party (DE, MD/DC, NJ, NY, PA, VA, WV), NV and OR State 
QSO Parties, an Internet Sprint for two hours on Saturday, the FISTS 
Spring Sprint (note that this is Saturday, not Sunday as reported in the 
Rate Sheet from ARRL), CQ-M DX Contest, Alessandro Volta RTTY DX 
Contest, a Portuguese Navy Day Contest, and a Six Meter Spring Sprint to 
run from 23 UTC Sat until 03 UTC Sunday.  The E-skip season is just 
beginning and it's time for us part-timers on six meters to start 
monitoring that band again.  I will almost certainly not have time to 
summarize the rules of these contests for the reflector since I am 
attending a bankruptcy seminar out of town on Friday.  See the WA7BNM, 
SM3CER, or ARRL Contest websites or the ARRL Rate Sheet for more 
information and references to webpages with official rules.

Hope everyone has a good week and weekend.

73,


John, K4BAI.
