QRP to the Field

Coming up on Saturday, April 25th, is this years QRP to the Field event.  This is one of the very few QRP events that has an actual SSB category

The event this year also includes SOTA Summits.  You can find SOTA Watch (HERE), and this event runs from 0900 to 1800 EDT.

The rules for this event can be found HERE

SSB Frequencies to use are: 3.985, 7.285, 14.285, 21.385, and 28.885.



Access issues sorted out

It's been 12 months since the last posting on this Blog, and that is because we haven't been able to get the log-in and password to work, but we think we have that issue sorted out now.

Upcoming Events......

Coming up soon are two events in one for us to enjoy.  This year, 2014, QRP to the Field and the International SOTA Day are both being held on May 3rd.   QRP to the Field will take place between 1200Z and 2359Z.  No timings for the International SOTA Day have been issued yet, we will post them when we get them.

We hope the pairing of these events will enable us to make a lot more QRP SSB contacts than we did last year.

QRP Afield 2013

This weekend is the QRP Afield event, sponsored by the New England QRP Society.

Rules for the event are HERE.

This is the perfect opportunity to get out and operate in the fall weather.  It's still not that cold out, and this weekend is supposed to be nice in Upper Canada.

Get out there and operate!
