[Elecraft] NJQRP Skeeter Hunt 2020

[Larry Makoski]

Skeeter Hunters!

The Ninth Annual NJQRP Skeeter Hunt is set for Sunday, August 16th.

A word about Skeeter Hunt numbers as I'm already receiving e-mail requests.
Tradition is that Skeeter Hunt numbers are issued as of the First Day of
Summer - which this year is NEXT Saturday, June. ONLY e-mail requests sent
as of 12:01 AM Saturday EDTwill be honored.

"Why/ What difference does it make?" you may well ask yourself. The answer
is simple - it gives eveyone interested an equal opportunity to acquire a
lower number. To some that's no big deal, but to others it's a very big
deal - so everyone gets the same chance. And it also adds another level of
participation that keeps YOU in the game, so to speak.

Why new numbers every year and not the same one year after year like other
contests? Because not everyone can participate each year - family
commitments or vacations or other things come up that prevent people from
participating.

So folks, start pouring in those e-mails to w2ljqrp at gmail.com AFTER
Midnight when this coming Friday turns into Saturday, here in NJ. And as
always, please, please, PLEASE include your call sign, your name (that you
will use when operating) and the State or Province that you will be
operating from.

Hope to hear from you all real soon!
