[SECC] Claimed Scores, Last Week's Contests; This Week's Contests

[John Laney]

The big emphasis this week is on this weekend's annual GA QSO Party. 
Check http://georgiaqsoparty.org/ for all details.  Hope everyone will 
be QRV to the extent possible over the weekend and help increase the run 
for everyone.  On Saturday, the M/M station of NQ4I will be QRV as 
K4HYB.  There will be many mobiles, portables, and rovers. Several clubs 
are having operating events/cookouts.  I expect to be using the SECC 
club call W4AN/M on CW with K4ETY and Bryan (sorry I forgot his call) on 
SSB from many GA counties.  Many will be QRV from their home stations. 
Be the equivalent of "DX" for the weekend.  Call CQ GQP and practice 
"running."
