Andy B, Andy C, Abe and Bill C,

Thanks! At last night's CARA meeting, several others also expressed an interest. I will check with Broomes Island to confirm the space for August 10th.

Apparently, the rules for the 2024 MDC QSO party have change for 2024. For instance the ONLY modes of operation for this year's QSO party are SSB and CW. I encourage everyone who plans to operate for this event to read the 2024 rules.

The rules can be found here: https://www.w3vpr.org/sites/default/files/MDCQSOPartyRules-New%20Revised%203-27-24%20ras_v4.pdf

More Details Soon.

If I am able, healthy enough. I will bring my own key and operate some CW for a couple hours.  Last time I did I got to use that wonderful Elecraft K3.

Radio Operators are needed for the Maryland DC QSO Party.

The Maryland DC QSO Party promotes HAM RADIO throughout the stateof Maryland and the District of Columbia.  The idea is tocontact as many stations in Maryland and Washington DC as possible.CARA members operating as K3CAL, can Hunt for and make contact withother Maryland and DC stations. Or CARA operators can Run CQ,making lots of contacts with out of state stations. All of thesecontacts add to the overall Club score.

CARA will need:
SSB operators.
CW Operators.
Digital Operators.

The tentative plan is to set up at Broomes Island Community Centerin Broomes Island. Operators can bring their own rigs. Initialthoughts are to operate on 80m 40m and 20m. CARA will provide theantenna system.

The event will begin at 1400 on August 10, 2024 UTC, and end at0400 August 11, 2024 UTC.
In EDT, the event will take place 10am August 10, 2024 and end atmidnight August 10th 2024.

Please respond to this email if you are interested in operating aradio as K3CAL for the Maryland DC QSO Party.
