What better way to get ready for October than to check out the radios and  
the operators thereof, by getting on tomorrow, Saturday, August 28, for the Ohio 
 QSO Party.
 
Your next door neighbors to the west will be holding their QSO Party from  
noon to midnight, EDT.  80 through 10 meters (no WARC bands, of  course).  
Exchange is QSO number and QTH, i.e. county for Ohio, state for  others.  
 
One difference from PaQP is that multipliers count per mode, so working  
Franklin county on SSB and CW counts for two multipliers.
 
Full OQP information is available at    _http://www.oqp.us_ 
(http://www.oqp.us) 
 
And one interesting factoid about the two states:  They have 21  counties 
with the same name.  Ohio has 88 counties; Pennsylvania 67; 88  minus 21 equals 
67!
 
Hope to see lots of you on Saturday!
