Some teaser questions ahead of tonight's club meeting program.
Number 6 is interesting one - is not asking when scores are the same, but
when can it score more?

Good luck!

1. If you operate from home under your own callsign, can you add your score
to our club’s field day
score?
2. If your hear contacts being made from an airplane on field day, what
class are they likely using?
Would it be “BB”?
3. Under what conditions can you operate 27 hours for field day, instead of
our usual 24 hours?
4. If putting up a dipole or an inverted-V for FD, the ends should be
pointing in what directions to
expect the most contacts from here in SNJ?
5. Which counts more, a contact to Ohio or a contact to California?
6. When can a 50 watt contact score more than a 5 watt contact?
7. What’s the maximum number of simultaneous transmitted signals that a
field day site can claim
for their field day category? How many bonus points would that be worth?
8. In addition to New Jersey, which other states are broken into sections
for field day?
