[PaQSO] k3ng can breathe again

[Larry G]

Greetings.....N3CR will not be Qrp in 2013.  Court was held 
Wednesday and it was decided N3CR will be DIGITAL 
2013!!....Thanks to W3BC for the idea.   I always like a 
challenge and taking on Goody K3NG and friends is a bit much
after a successful 2012 PAQP whether I am number 4 in Carbon 
County or number 3.   I have the well matched antennas
that can handle the Digital Challenge at 50 watts.   We made 
our 50k points this year and 2013 was decided long ago
to be a FUN YEAR.  It will be good for THE PARTY since a lot 
of hours will be spent on RTTY and PSK31.  KA3AFY
is concidering the 10m  challenge (there goes multi-op!). 
I have done a little RTTY and PSK31 contesting so this will
not be anything new.  Knowing someone will be out there and 
the schedule posted perhaps more will take interest.   I
will certainly be at the bottom of the list next year but 
the fun factor is huge.   If you become in dire need of 
Carbon
County in 2013 you will know where to look!!!   I have not 
given up trying to beat the other "big guns" and the solar
cycle is coming up, but somehow this is something I must 
try.   Digital Bonus Station????   That gives all the guys 
on
CW a one year break!!!!    And perhaps the hardcore 
something new to try.   I am game for any ideas on this and
serious enough to try it.   73s de larry n3cr  Carbon Radio
