Hi, my friends! I'm hoping all y'all can help me out!
I hope it's OK to mention that this Saturday, April 10 is the New Mexico
QSO Party (*NMQP*). It's from 8:00 am MDT (10:00 AM EDT, 1400 UTC) through
8:00 pm MDT (10:00 PM EDT, 0200 UTC), I'll be mobile with my IC-705 & MFJ
hamsticks, activating many of the rarest New Mexico Counties. (Otero,
Chavez, Eddy, Lea, deBaca, Roosevelt, Curry, Guadalupe, San Miguel, &
Torrance).
My preferred frequencies:
CW 14.050
SSB 14.280
CW 7.045
SSB 7.260
CW 3.550
SSB 3.815
FM 146.52
(I'll keep my speed to 15 wpm or less, I promise!)
I plan to run 5 watts only, despite having external batteries available,
(yes, you can easily reduce the power to 50%!) This earns 5 points per
QSO. Making at least 15 contacts in a county earns 5,000 extra points, so
I'm really hoping the bands are open and folks are looking to contact me in
the Land of Enchantment!
