To New England radio clubs:



*I'd appreciate your help in publicizing the upcoming New England QSO Party
on May 2nd and 3rd.    Please mention it at your next club meeting and in
your newsletter.  Hope you've had good success in using virtual meetings!
*The NEQP is a great time to check out antenna systems and offers a
moderately paced opportunity to work new states and countries.   You'll
find a wide variety of participants, from newcomers to experienced
contesters, all interested in making contacts with New England stations.

With travel restrictions we do not expect to have activity from mobile
stations but hope we can generate a big increase in home station
activity.   Our goal is to get every one of the 67 counties in New England
on the air so we hope you will encourage your members to join in the fun!
Even if you can join the fun for a couple of hours, we'd appreciate it!   *Will
you be QRV?   Let us know with a message to info at neqp.org <info at neqp.org>*




*The New England QSO Party is 20 hours long overall, in two sections with a
civilized break for sleep on Saturday night.  It runs from 4pm Saturday
until 1am Sunday, then 9am Sunday until 8pm Sunday.  Operate on CW, SSB
and/or digital modes on 80-40-20-15-10 meters.   For each QSO you'll give
your callsign, a signal report and your county/state.   Top scorers can
earn a plaque and everyone who sends in a log will get a certificate.  The
goal is to work stations anywhere in the world - and their goal is to work
New England stations, so you'll be very popular! *Last year we had logs
from almost 200 New England stations and 450 more from around the country
and world.

The full rules are here ->  http://www.neqp.org/rules.html

The 2019 results were posted last weekend  ->

*It's just three weeks until the 2020 NEQP.   Please make some QSOs even if
you don't want to send in a log! *Thanks!
