Hopefully, Dad will have had a good day on Sunday. Good food, good
company and the love and closeness of family making the day perfect.
But wait! There's one more thing needed to make the day REALLY perfect;
and that's by letting Dad get on the radio and spend a couple of hours
engaged in his favorite hobby. That's where the Flying Pigs come to the
rescue!
This Sunday evening, the Flying Pigs Amateur Radio Club International
will be holding its monthly Run For The Bacon. This is a friendly, two
hour QRP CW Sprint, which is open to ALL radio amateurs, will last from
9:00 - 11:00PM EDT (0200-0400 UTC Monday).
You may work stations once per band on 160, 80, 40, 20, 15 or 10
Meters. Suggested starting frequencies are 1.812, 3.562, 7.044, 14.062,
21.062, and 28.062 MHz.
The exchange is RST, S/P/C (State, Province, Country) and Flying Pigs
membership number. If you're not a member of the Flying Pigs, and would
like to be; then please click on the "membership" hyperlink on
http://www.fpqrp.com/. Otherwise, non-members can just use their output
power figure.
You can report your score via the Autolog page which can be found at
:http://www.fpqrp.com/fpqrprun.html;
or you can mail your logs to the address given on the Autolog page. The
deadline for logs is June 25th at 2400 UTC.
As like last month, the top three scorers will win a certificate. Keep
in mind that anyone who participates in 10 out of 12 RFTBs this year
will earn a special Certificate of Merit at the end of the year. So
please use the Autolog if you've participated; but were unfortunate
enough to make any contacts. In this case, trying helps!
Hope to catch you on the air Sunday evening!
