[SECC] Claimed Scores, Last Weekend's Contest

[John Laney]

Hello all:

Hope you are having a good week.  I got no scores for either of the QRP 
contests last week.  All scores found were for CQ WPX CW, which was an 
excellent contest with above average conditions for the first half and 
about average for the second.

This weekend will feature the IARU Region One Field Day and the RSGB 
National Field Day.  These are CW contests and run 15Z Sat to 15Z Sun. 
If the bands are open for DX, you can have a lot of fun giving out RST + 
serial numbers to the European FD stations.  Also, there is the annual 
QRP Telephone Area Code Sprint on Saturday, 18Z to 2359Z.  You might 
turn the rig down to 5 watts and play in this one after the Atlanta 
Hamfest.  RST + Name + State + Telephone Area Code.  A sample logsheet 
can be downloaded from the website.  CW/SSB/PSK.  Pa stations send "X" 
after the TAC.  Extra points for QSOs with N3EPA.

Hope everyone has a nice week and a lot of fun and on-the-air plus 
eyeball QSOs this weekend.

You might be interested to know that Bill Fisher's original Extra Class 
call, KM9P, has been obtained by a WPX club with K4JNY as the trustee. 
Scott, W4PA, used KM9P in the WPX contest last weekend and sounded a lot 
like Bill.  Scott guest operated at Bill's station on a number of 
occasions and he and Jeff (K4JNY) say that they obtained the call for 
use in WPX contests as a tribute to Bill.

73,


John, K4BAI.
