[SECC] NAQP Mult Quiz

[Ralph K1ZZI]

Tad sure enough these are the other (by the way) NAQP country mults.  My N1MM contest software doesn't list any of them in the mult window.  However, everyone listed here lights up and indicates a mult when I enter the prefix.  Bill was right this adds a bunch!  

Thanks for providing the list Tad.  You are the winner of the NAQP Mult Quiz.  AA4LR wins our finders fee.

        OK, I did a websearch for "NAQP Multipliers" and got a hit that pointed me to the NAQP forms here:  http://www.ncjweb.com/naqpforms.pdf

        I extracted the mults from the PDF and here they are

          Good catch Bill.

          Apparently there are others.  N1MM only lists 63 on the mult sheet but I
          find VP9, KP2, YS, XE, J3, 6Y, V4 do light up red indicating a mult.
          There maybe more too.  It would be helpful to have a complete country
          list of mults to share with everyone.

          As discussed earlier mults are very important.  I don't recall listening
          down in that area for mults but I will pay attention now!  Reason #2 why
          wire antennas are great for NAQP.  Beams can work too but they need to
          be pointed in the right direction :<).

          If I can add a couple more mults to my score it's a big deal!  Thanks.

          "Multipliers: Are U.S. states (including KH6 and KL7), 13 Canadian
          provinces/territories (British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba,
          Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI, Newfoundland/Labrador,
          Yukon, NWT and Nunavut) and other North American countries."

          Read carefully the last five words of the sentence. There are more than 63
          multipliers per band.
