In between chasing mobiles from Minnesota, Delaware, and Vermont, you
may wish to partake of the annual
QRP F)reeze Y)our B)... O)ff (FYBO) eggzstravaganza!
This event is held every year on the last Saturday of the January.
Instead of the usual 599 QTH, one highlight of this event is a report
the temperature (in °F or °C) at the operating position (NOT the outside
ambient temperature of your heated ham shack, unless that's your
operating location). Extra points are allocated for field stations, etc.
Details of this event are at
http://www.azscqrpions.com/fybo2009rules.html
There's a 2 minute "trailer" or preview of past events - on the above site.
Join the fracas! Note that folks who operate at <5 watts are only
slightly more nutz than the average ham. :)
