Sorry if you get several copies of this if you are on several lists.
Hope to hear a great number of Hawaii hams on the air this weekend.

To Hawai`i Amateur Radio Clubs, their members and selected stations that 
operated HQP in 2012.

Hi all,

Just a short note about the 2013 Hawaii QSO Party beginning Friday,  
August 23rd at 18:00 Hawaii time for 48 hours. For details see the rules at,

www.HawaiiQSOParty.org <http://www.HawaiiQSOParty.org>

There will be four non-Hawaii bonus stations this year. Hawaii stations 
look for W7DRA, NN2DX, W7/NN2DX and IT9/NN2DX for contacts that count as 
20x QSOs.

Hawaii clubs have an incentive to get members to operate.  For every 
operator that logs at least five contacts the club earns an extra 25 QSO 
points!

This year high scoring stations in geographic regions are eligible for 
plaques, in addition to certificates, for their accomplishments.  See 
the AWARDS tab on the contest site for details.

Based on reports, the KH6LC Super Station, the Battleship Missouri 
KH6BB, and a group from the KARC club will be operating from Kalawao 
County (pass the word to the County Hunters).

Why not join in even if for just a few hours to help put Hawaii on the 
Amateur Radio map.

Aloha es 73,

Joe/AH0A

BTW, please pass the word along about HQP on the repeaters, HF nets, and 
Hawaii Amateur Radio reflectors.
