[TMRA] operating Ohio QSL party under club call

[Joe Thielen]

Yes, there is a place on the summary form to enter both your call AND your
clubs call (for club credit).

Most of the questions I'm asking are theoretical, based on reading the Ohio
QSO Party Rules... which are fairly sparse.

I didn't know about having to have a copy of the club license on the spot
for operating as the club call.  That clears up one piece of that for me,
thank you Brian.

There is some interesting info regarding the two very different Ohio QSO
Party websites... check this out (be sure to read the comments below the
posting):

I guess maybe the part I'm missing is that when operating under the club
call you're part of a multi-op group, while if you go it alone, you can be a
part of the other group types, while still contributing points to your
club... plus can do other things like rover or mobile.
