I will be signing W4S tomorrow and Sunday in the Florida QSO Party and hope you join in the fun. Try working the spelling Bee and over 12 mobiles who will sit on county lines and give you two counties at once.  As they move from county to county they become a new contact for points.

C)  2026 FQP SPELLING BEE:

To celebrate the USA’s 250^th anniversary, we will have a total of 20 special 1x1 stations whose suffixes spell 

US BIRTHDAY.  There will be two stations per suffix.  Contact at least one station of each suffix letter spelling US BIRTHDAY to earn this award. These stations will be on both modes and should be very accessible. QSL these 1x1 calls active in FQP via KU9C direct or via Logbook of The World (LoTW).                  

The call signs, counties and hosts are:
