[WIQPmail] Spotting in WIQP

[Joe]

I know it is probably too late for anything like this.

For the WIQP I think something like this will really be neat!

In the OK party they have this set up.

Challenge.

In the "OK" and "ID" I will be doing my Token make at least a dozen or 
so contacts to qualify for the *
*State QSO Party Challenge.

But the Wisconsin one of course gonna try and go all out for ours! YAY!

I am gonna try something different this year. In years past I always 
started out on 20 meters, thinking lets get those far off states etc. 
while 20 is still open and before 20 closes.

Thing is I always spend too much time there making great QSO rates, and 
not want to leave. BUT by the time I do leave, and go to 40 or 80, The 
bands have already gone pretty long and getting all the counties is a 
hard task now.

So My thinking is this year, I'm gonna start on 3860 + QRM and start on 
80, and go for the counties first. If things get slow change to CW for a 
while, and then maybe 40 meters.

The more distant states mult stuff will show up anyway later on 40 & 80 
when the bands lengthen out true?

So Hope to see ya somewhere near 3860 or so at the start of the contest.

I'll be using W9ET again
