NAQP is a real easy contest. Everyone is limited to 100 watts. No amplifiers, just your barefoot rig. Exchange is name and SPC (state, province, country). Non-NA DX counts for Qs, but not mults.

Multipliers are per-band, so there's value in being active on six bands 10-160m. NAQP was the reason I first got on 160m, and now I hold 160m WAS, believe it or not.

You just try to get the best score you can. There are up to five members on a team. The team score is the sum of the individual scores. Teams must be registered before the start of the contest.
