[SD-User] NAQP - North American QSO Party

[Paul O'Kane]

The NAQP takes place from 1800 UTC Saturday 17th January
to 0559 UTC Sunday 18h January.  It is SSB-only on the
6 contest bands from 160-10m.  There is no high-power
section - only LP (100w) and QRP (5w).

Rules at http://www.ncjweb.com/naqprules.php

SD supports SO entries. V14.17 runs on Windows and
Linux/Wine, and is free from www.ei5di.com.

   Select the "NAQP" template.

North American stations work everyone.
Others work NA only (any North American country, not
just W/VE).

For DX entrants, SD displays non-NA calls in red.  If
it's not red, you can go ahead and work it for points.

NA entrants send Name + QTH (State/Province/Country).
All others send Name only.  No RST!

Before the contest, use Shift-F2 to update your F2
keyer exchange.  For example:  #C NAME QTH#E

Use SDCHECK to prepare your Cabrillo .LOG file.  HP
entries are treated as checklogs.  You may email your
log, as an attached file, to ssbnaqp at ncjweb.com.

However, the organisers prefer you to upload the file
directly at http://www.ncjweb.com/naqplogsubmit.php

Please mention SD in your Cabrillo soapbox comments.
This encourages others to try it.
