The NAQP takes place from 1800 UTC Saturday 13th January to
0600 UTC Sunday 14th January.  You can work stations in any
North American country, not just W/VE.

This is a CW-only event on the 6 contest bands from 160 - 10m.
There is no high-power section - only LP (100w) and QRP (5w).

Rules at http://www.ncjweb.com/naqprules.php

SD supports single-op entries in NAQP.  V13.13A runs on any
Windows PC and is free from www.ei5di.com/sd/sdsetup.exe.

   Select SD's "NAQP" template.

The exchange is simple - your name!  However, NA entrants
add their QTH (State/Province/Country abbreviation).  No
reports are required.
 
For DX entrants, SD displays non-NA calls in red. If it's
not red, then it's OK to work for points.

Use Shift-F2 to update SD's F2 keyer exchange as
appropriate.  For example:  #C NAME#E

After the contest, use SDCHECK to prepare your Cabrillo
.LOG file.  If you specify high-power, your entry will be
treated as a checklog.  

Don't email your log.  Instead, open it with Notepad, use
Edit/Select All, then Edit/Copy, and finally Paste it
(using Ctrl_V) into the form at 
http://www.ncjweb.com/naqplogsubmit.php.
