The June Bill Windle QSO Party
The Event: The Bill Windle QSO Party.
Stations call CQ BW
Duration: 24 hours. 0000Z to 2359Z on Saturday, 23 May, 2009.
Object:
FOC members - To make as many different QSOs as
possible. VHF bands are included but WARC bands are excluded. Members are
encouraged to work as many members and non-members as possible to promote
operating on CW. This also provides an opportunity to hear the operating
practices
of others who may be considered for nomination in the future.
Non-Members - To contact as many FOC members as possible on all amateur
bands including VHF. However, the WARC bands are excluded.
Exchange: For FOC members: RST, Name, & FOC Number.
Non-members: RST & Name
This is the minimum info to exchange. Everyone is encouraged to have at
least a mini-chat with other stations.
Frequencies: CW portions of all appropriate bands, from 015 to 040.
Top Band: Avoid the DX Window, stay below 1825 KHz.
Activity Report: FOC members - Report total QSOs and total FOC QSOs,
counted once per band. For example: 302/177 would indicate a score where the
first number would be total QSOs, followed by the total FOC member QSOs.
Non-Members - Report total QSOs with FOC members, counted once per band.
Awards: Handsome certificates will be awarded to the station on
each continent reporting the highest number of QSOs. Certificates will be
awarded in both categories - members and non-members.
No logs, no verification required; we are only using the honor system.
Send your report to: _KZ5D at aol.com_ (mailto:KZ5D at aol.com) no later than 30
May, 2009.
