For those of you who like more than one week's notice of upcoming events,
the fifth 7QP will be May 2nd, the same weekend as the NEQP and Indiana QP.
W7 stations are reminded that they can work Indiana and New England 
mobiles again as new contacts when they enter a different county.

For those of you outside of New England, Indiana and W7, consider making 
a exchange file for your logging program that combines the lists of 
counties for all three parties. That way you do not have to switch logs. 
You do not need to separate out QSOs after the party is over. Simply 
submit the whole log - the contest sponsors will ignore any QSOs that do 
not count.

New this year are digital modes - RTTY and PSK31 QSOs will count in the 
digital or mixed category. This makes capturing those western states you 
need for the Triple Play award easy.

Check out exact time and dates, suggested frequencies and rules at 
www.7qp.org.
