NAQP is a real easy contest. Everyone is limited to 100 watts. No amplifiers,
just your barefoot rig. Exchange is name and SPC (state, province, country).
Non-NA DX counts for Qs, but not mults.
Multipliers are per-band, so there's value in being active on six bands
10-160m. NAQP was the reason I first got on 160m, and now I hold 160m WAS,
believe it or not.
You just try to get the best score you can. There are up to five members on a
team. The team score is the sum of the individual scores. Teams must be
registered before the start of the contest.
