Greetings,
The Frederick Amateur Radio Club in cooperation with Dick Hayman WN3R, will
be participating in this year's Maryland-DC QSO Party next weekend, Aug.
14-15, at WN3R's impressive home radio shack atop Braddock Mtn. at 11000
Gambrill Park Rd., and we need operators!
The MDC QSO Party is an annual event
(http://mdcqsoparty.w3vpr.org/Documents/Maryland_QSO_Party_Rules_Eff_2010_v2-0.pdf)
that draws lots of participants due to it's low key "fun" theme. A big
advantage of operating from a club station is that other stations really
want to talk to you as they get the maximum contact points (10) from making
each club station contact. For this event, we are putting the word out to
all area hams, whether they are members of FARC or not, to help us out by
taking a turn at the microphone, key, or keyboard from Dick's shack at 1750'
elevation with 1000+ watts at your command! This is the second year Dick has
been gracious enough to host us at his home, and this is one of the most
amazing multi-op shacks you'll ever see. Don't take my word for it, check
out WN3R at QRZ.com.
We will be operating on Sat. from 1200-1800, and on Sun. from 1200-2000, and
would love for you to stop by. Please contact me if you're available.
Thanks.
73,
