The Georgia QSO Party is scheduled to occur the weekend
of April 11th, 2020. Please help me communicate this information
about the 2020 QSO Party.
The state of Georgia has implemented a stay at home order thru
at least April 13th due to the large number of COVID-19 virus
cases in Georgia. This order is effective starting Friday April
3rd, 2020. Based on the travel restrictions in Georgia and the
importance of rover operations in the GQP the decision has been
made by the GQP leadership to shorten the 2020 QSO Party to a
one day event. It will be held on Saturday April 11th, 2020
from 1600-0400z, Due to travel restrictions within Georgia
mobile operations will not be allowed. Multi-Op operations will
only be allowed if remote operation technology is used that will
allow social distancing or if the operation takes place from a
shared family station.
