[FLham] Re: [FLBOATANCHORS] Alternative to Absurd Ham Flea Start Times?

Sun, 21 Apr 2002 21:40:04 -0400

I too am not a morning person - made the mistake of taking care of a few
pre-Florida QSO Party errands on Saturday morning before getting to the
Tampa TARC tailgate...got there at noon and everyone had packed up....

The FQP is next weekend...the Tampa club will be running a multi-multi!

Florida hams are all invited to participate in the fastest growing state QSO
Party - its Florida versus the world...you send RS(T) and County....starts
at noon on Saturday - runs for ten hours then and then for ten hours on
Sunday starting at 8:00 AM....

Full rules are available at:

Put Florida on the air!

73,

Jim, K4OJ
