[PPRAANet] Nevada QSO Party and "Silver State Series"

[Michael Derbort]

The Frontier Amateur Radio Society (FARS) is pleased to present the 2011
Nevada 
QSO Party.
 
The Nevada QSO Party was founded by FARS.  However, for the past few years
it 
has been administered by a couple of different groups and most recently has 
become known as the Nevada Mustang Round-Up. The administration of the NQP
has 
recently been passed back to FARS.  
 
We are pleased to announce the creation of the "Silver State Series" a 
collection of three contests associated with our state.
 
Nevada is proud to be a part of the 7th Call Area and a participating state
in 
the 7th Area QSO Party, the first event in the series.  We urge all Nevada
hams 
to get on the air May 7-8 and support the 7QP.
 
The second event in the series is our own state QSO party the Nevada Mustang

Round-Up. It takes off for 24 hours the following weekend on May 14th.  
 
The Silver State Series is rounded out on September 10th with the first
running 
of the new "Nevada High Noon Shootout".  The Shootout is a fast paced
"sprint" 
type of event.
 
Full details of all the events are located at the new Nevada QSO Party
website

High quality plaques will be awarded to the winners in each category.
Equally 
high quality certificates will be sent to the high score in each state, 
providence, and DXCC entity.
 
We are looking forward to hearing you on the air next month.
