[3830] Fw: New (Unofficial) NS CW Prize

[Eric Hilding]

I forgot to add there is one "catch" in the rules in order to qualify for the $100 Ben Franklin:

You must work at least 10 different callsigns, and at least one QSO must be with N6RO, K7NV, N6ZFO or K6VVA.

Since I'm giving the $$$, I make the rules :-)

Go-For-It...

Rick, K6VVA

Congrats to the 3 Stooges (ooops, ahhh... "Wombats").  Even though they QLF'd the operating mode, what a Stellar QSO total showing by K7SS, KL2A & KQ7W.

Danny, "You Da Man!" (91 QSOs).

OK...who will be the first to make 100 or more QSOs in a regular weekly NS Practice Party ("CW" Mode)?  I'll fork out a $100 bill to the winner (logs to probably be tabulated by Price Waterhouse et.al. #^:)

Remember, tonight is SSB-SSB-SSB. 

Not many regular Contesters showed up on SSB last night, but some casual ops (one gave me an S1 signal report) came to the rescue. Many unanswered CQ's, and virtually zip on 80/160m.

29 Qs x 23 Mults = 667 Points

73...

RIck, K6VVA
