The NC QSO Party is coming up soon- Its slated this year for 1700 UTC
Feb.23 through 0300 UTC Feb.24 (10 hours). The rules have not changed
from last year, and we were successful at activating 98 of 100 counties!

We'd like to try and get all counties involved this year. The website
for the party is located at-
http://www.w4nc.com.
Just click on the NC QSO Party tab. There you will also find results
from last year. I will again be keeping a map of counties so if you are
planning to be fixed or mobile, let me know with an email and I'll fill
that county in.
Last year we had over 50 logs, and had certificates and plaques out
WITHIN 60 DAYS of the log due date (no endless waiting with this
event....). Several of the plaques were presented at the Contest Dinner
at the Dayton hamfest- some even in the parking lot! We hope to have
even better participation this year.
So...
Email me the county/counties you'll be activating and I'll get the map
up on the QSO Party page within the week. Thanks for your continued
support of the ever-growing NC QSO Party! If you send me mail and want
me to forward it to this list, just let me know- I'll be happy to play
"reflector" for all participants.
