[HCRA] New England QSO Party 1012

[Larry Krainson]

*New England QSO Party - 2023*

The New England QSO Party on May 6th and 7th is a great time to check out
antenna systems and offers a moderately paced opportunity to work new
states and countries. You'll find a wide variety of participants, from
newcomers to experienced contesters, all interested in making contacts with
New England stations.

Our goal is to get every one of the 67 counties in New England on the air
so we hope you will encourage your friends to join in the fun! Even if you
can join us for a couple of hours, we'd appreciate it! *Will you be QRV?
Let us know with a message to info at neqp.org <info at neqp.org>*


*The New England QSO Party is 20 hours long overall, in two sections with a
civilized break for sleep on Saturday night.  It runs from 4 pm Saturday
until 1 am Sunday, then 9 am Sunday until 8 pm Sunday.  Operate on CW, SSB
and/or digital modes on 80-40-20-15-10 meters.  For each QSO you'll give
your callsign, a signal report and your county/state.  Top scorers can earn
a plaque and everyone who sends in a log with at least 25 QSOs will get a
certificate.  The goal is to work stations anywhere in the world - and
their goal is to work New England stations, so you'll be very popular!*

Last year we had logs from 871 stations from around the country and world.
There were 295 stations from New England on the air!

if you don't want to send in a log!*Thanks!
