>> Our contest, the California QSO Party, is October 7-8.
>> Begins: 1600Z (09:00 AM PDT) - Saturday, 7 October.
>> Ends:   2159Z (02:59 PM PDT) - Sunday,   8 October.
>>
>> That's just 5 weeks from now.
>>
>> For full details, and lots of CQP information, please
>> visit the web site - http://www.cqp.org/.
>>
>> CQP needs every possible California station on the air - no
>> station is too small to get on and call CQ.  The more California
>> stations on the air, the more out-of-state participants
>> will enjoy the party and leading to more fun for all of us.
>>
>> However, it starts with you, the California station!
>>
>> K6RB has an excellent pair of articles covering strategy
>> (hint: call CQ!).  Follow this link to the article on the
>> CQP web pages -  http://www.cqp.org/pdf/cqp_strategy_k6rb.pdf,
>> and this link to the Sept JUG - http://www.nccc.cc/jug/jug06sep.pdf.
>>
>> The names of the multipliers (county names and state/province names)
>> have been updated this year.  Look at -
> http://www.cqp.org/cqp_multipliers.html
>> for the complete details.
>>
>> Major logging software packages have been updated for the change.
>> Look at - http://www.cqp.org/Software.html.  You might download
>> your favorite package update now and check it's operation to
>> make sure you're ready for CQP.  Watch the NCCC email reflector
>> for updates.
>>
>> CQP still needs operators in several counties - N6TV's operating plan
>> is at - http://www.cqp.org/Counties-Plan-2006.html.  If you can go
>> mobile, even for a bit, hit one of the counties with only one fixed
>> station, or only covered by a mobile.
>>
>> County hunting is a big part of CQP - especially the rarer CA counties.
>> Help out the county hunters by spotting the county expeditions
>> thru W6RK's site - http://ch.w6rk.com/.
>>
>> Lastly - if you have questions, need help, or have a suggestion, please
>> contact either myself (wb6s at arrl.net or W6ZZZ - ziegler at accesscom.com).
