[CQ-Contest] NEQP this weekend!

[Tom Frenaye]

After two days above 90 this week we're expecting some cooler weather this weekend for the NEQP.  It looks like WA1Z and NZ1U will be in a lot of counties, and another eight mobiles are planning an effort as well.   Today we confirmed there will be activity from all 67 counties in all 6 New England states. 

   73 Tom/K1KI.
