[CQ-Contest] NAQP Names

[Jack Brindle]

Why not? Having to repeat the phonetics over and over would drive lots of us nuts quickly. But be sure to say them in French (or some other non-NA language)
so we get the full treatment.

Or better - use a Cajun name. Since Cajun is a non-written language, there would be no spelling, and nothing to write into the log… <grin>

- Jack B, W6FB
- who amazingly is not Cajun - but almost all my relatives are!

We are probably going to use some unusual name in NAQP SSB related to Ohio State to celebrate. I also suggested this to MRRC members in OH to do this as well but not sure if they will follow my lead.
