[HBQRP] Saturday July 11th - 1DIJ

[Piatt, Darwin]

Here is a group, who in conjunction with our operating event, will be on
the air also.  That makes a lot of people....

Look at their operating times and see if some of us can be on the air
also so these folks can get some Nebraska QRP contacts and we can get
some of the folks down there.

If you want to go out to the Ashland Park a little early to provide
contacts for these folks, let either Darrel or I know and we will work
on getting someone there to operate while you go eat. No worries.

This will be a great operating event for us all.....

Dar...

p.s. use the 'club' call - N0QG so they will know it is us!  If a state
pops up that you need also, work them again with your call.

NoGa QRP Virtual Event, Saturday July 11th 

Saturday July 11 is a really big day in the QRP world this year.  There
are now five QRP events planned around the United States: 
 
SalmonCon, Seattle Washington / Special Event Callsign K7S 
1 day in July, Omaha Nebraska (Midwest Homebrewers) 
LobsterCon, Brunswick Maine
GatorCon, Orlando Florida
ArmadilloCon, Mesquite Texas

I have communicated with the organizers of SalmonCon and have worked out
the details below. 
 
To show support to these events, I propose that we all get on the air as
we can using the following schedule: 
 
Saturday, 11 July: 
 
1:00 PM EDT/10:00 AM PDT - 10.116 and 14.060 plus/minus QRM but within a
few KHz mode, is CW 
 
17:30 EDT/14:30 PDT - 10.116 and 14.060 plus/minus QRM but within a few
KHz, mode is CW 
 
19:30 EDT/16:30 PDT - 14.285 and 18.130 plus/minus QRM but within a few
KHz, mode is USB 
 
 
On Sunday, 12 July: 
 
12:00 EDT/09:00 AM PDT - 10.116 and 14.060 plus/minus QRM but within a
few KHz, mode is CW 
 
12:30 EDT/09:30 PDT - 14.285 and 18.130 plus/minus QRM but within a few
KHz, mode is USB 
 
 
Being that multiple stations will be trying from the Atlanta Georgia
area, I am proposing that we sign our callsigns as <callsign/NoGa>. 
 
An example would be kc4zua/NoGa. 
 
I hope to hear you on the air.
