[Fists] FOC QSO Party

[Nancy WZ8C]

>From FOC reflector:
 
FOC open invitation to all CW ops
 
Join us for 24 hours of CW fun, making QSOs with FOC members on all 6 
HF bands (WARC excluded) and VHF. This is an operating event (not a 
contest) called The Bill Windle QSO Party. The primary purpose is to 
encourage more CW activity. Stations call CQ BW in any portion of the 
band from 015 to 040. Non-members contact FOC members. Contact each 
station once per band. Exchange RST and name (FOC members will also 
send their membership number). Stations are encouraged to also engage 
in mini-chats, if they so desire. The activity event will run from 
0000Z to 2359Z on June 10, 2006. No awards and no reporting required, 
but if you are so inclined, send in your QSO total to be listed.
 
Non-members send total number of QSOs with FOC members (counted once 
per band). Members will report the number of total QSOs/and total FOC 
QSOs (counted once per band). No logs required, we use the honor
system. Email totals only to _KZ5D at aol.com_ (mailto:KZ5D at aol.com) by 
June 17, 2006. All non-member stations reporting will receive a copy of 
the results via email. List will be posted on the FOC website and on 
contesting.com See you on the bands June 10th!
