ANNOUNCING: 2013 LQP (LOCUST QSO PARTY)
The closest thing to a 'Level Playing Field' is the LQP (Locust QSO Party),
and the 7th annual running will take place Wednesday, January 16, 2013, at
6PM (PST)
which equates to 1/17/13 @ 0200 UTC. This year, it's a FULL HOUR of CW
Contesting Fun,
and a good 'warm up' opportunity for the NA SPRINT (CW) in February.
If you think the LQP is for Contest Sissies, think again. Kudos to the 'Big
Gun'
sharp Contest Ops who also participated in the past LQP events and cranked
down
their power to demonstrate that 'skill' is still important in contesting.
LQP Category Award NCJ Subscription (or Renewal) Winners from the first 6
LQP events
were AD6E, AE6Y, K1GU, KE1B, K4BAI, K6XX, KL7NC, K7TD, K7SS, K9JWV, K0TG,
N3RC, N4AF,
W4NZ, N5DO, N6RO, N6ZFO, WQ5L, W7WHY, W9RE, W9RGB, W0BH, WD0T, VE3DZ,
VE3NBJ, VA7ST,
& XE1KK (some won in multiple years).
Again this year, a total of TEN NCJ (National Contest Journal) Subscriptions
(or Renewals) will be given to LQP Category Winners. The NCCC NS/NSL Sprint
type
format offers all Little Pistol stations opportunities to rack up Q's and a
winning
score in the LQP.
The new full 2013 LQP (Locust QSO Party) Rules are now available at:

weekend).
Rick, K6VVA * The Locust (a/k/a C6AVA)
