ANNOUNCING THE FOURTH ANNUAL MID-ATLANTIC QSO PARTY

The fourth annual Mid-Atlantic QSO Party (MAQP) will run from
Saturday May 12, 2007 at 1600 UTC until Sunday May 13, 2007 at 0400
UTC. The MAQP is a an old-fashioned QSO Party focused on Delaware,
Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia
and Washington DC, but we encourage participants from around the
world. Activity will be on all non-WARC amateur HF bands from 160 to
10 meters, plus the 6, 2, 1.25, and .7 meters bands, all modes.

This year’s event has been shortened to 12 hours after much comment
from participants, and we have moved it away from Mother’s Day for
the first time. We hope these changes encourage participation in the
original spirit of  a competitive challenge that anyone can enjoy.
All stations are welcome –  single, multi, clubs, mobile, QRP –  as
long as your power is limited to 200 watts.
The committee awards plaques and certificates for Top Score by
category in each Mid-Atlantic state, and Top Score outside the
region, Top Score DX, and Top Score VE, among others. Most popular
contest logging software includes the MAQP. Visit the MAQP website at
http://maqp.info for more details, rules, maps, submittal forms, etc.

If you, your group, or club would like to sponsor a plaque, please
contact us as soon as possible while there are still some opportunities!
