[NCC] Whipping Up CQ WW WPX SSB Friday Evening 8:00 pm ET - 7:59 pm ET Sunday

[Jim]

I’ll be passing out a few rare K8 QSOs from down here in Florida. Though SSB with low power and crappy antennas is not much fun.

Give us crazy WPX guys some Qs please, 160 through 10 meters, starts at 8 pm ET Friday and runs until 7:59 pm ET Sunday. Exchange is simply signal report and serial number. See cqwpx.com for the rules. Logs in by Friday, April 3 at 7:59 pm ET.
