I missed both 40M QRP Foxes last Thursday night, but got both 80 M QRP
Foxes Tuesday night. K4PIC probably worked them both on Tuesday night
too. Most of that 8 hours in the Michigan QRP club contest was with the
computer on repeat calling CQ on some open band while I did paperwork or
read. Rate is too slow to be enjoyable if that is all you do.
This weekend, there should be something for almost everybody. I don't
have time to summarize all the rules, but here is a sketchy preview.
1. NAQCC 80 Meter QRP Sprint. Wednesday night local, 0130-0330 UTC,
Thursday. 80 M CW only. Exchange: Call, RST, Name, SPC. Double your
score for use of a hand key only and 1 1/2 times score for use of a bug
only.
2. UK DX RTTY Contest. 12Z Sat to 12Z Sunday. 80-10M RTTY.
http0://www.srars.org/ukdx.ukdx.pdf.
3. Hungarian DX Contest. CW/SSB/Mixed. 12Z Sat to 12Z Sun. 160-10M.
Work anyone, but multipliers are Hungarian counties and member # of
members of Hungarian DX Club. Exchange: RS(T) + serial # except for
HA/HG stations, who sent RS(T) + county abbreviation (two letters) or
HDXC member #.
4. North American QSO Party, SSB. 18Z Sat to 06Z Sun. Maximum of 10
hours. 160-10 SSB. 100 watts maximum power. Exchange: Name + SPC or
Name only for DX outside NA. Multipliers count per band.
5. ARRL January VHF Sweepstakes. 19Z Sat to 04Z Mon. Exchange: 4
character grid square. I have found 6 meters open some years during
this January contest.
Hope everyone has a good week and weekend and many QSOs with much fun.
73,
John, K4BAI.
