[SCCC] N6MI (K6VCR, N7DA, KI6RXX) -- California QSO Party in Kern

[J. Scott Bovitz <bovitz@bovitz.com>]

From October 5 (1600 UTC) through October 6 (2200 UTC), N6MI (K6VCR, N7DA, KI6RXX, N6MI, ops) will run a Multi-Two expedition in the California QSO Party from Kern County. We will be operating Field Day style, but we are cutting back on the Field Day chow.

We are looking for your California county (locals), or your state (two letter abbreviation), or your Canadian province/territory (two letter abbreviation).

We will send “KERN” because, well, that’s the county name.

We will be in the Los Padres National Forest (Tecuya Mountain), so we will also run POTA (Parks on the Air) from US-0639. No different exchange is required. We will upload the POTA log after the contest.

We will be on SSB and CW.

Of course, everyone will be looking to work all 58 California counties. (Just work us first.)

73,

The team

P.S. Drew wanted us to identify as N7DA/6 and use a hand key on CW. While I sent 20 words a minute on a hand key at the FCC examination back in the 70s, the answer is “no."
