<font size="+1"><font face="Consolas">Greetings Fellow WIQPers.<br>
<br>
I invite you all to join in on some extra fun during the QSO
Party. Many do not know this even exists, but once they join in
they get the extra rush of adrenaline to try to push harder and
do better in the contest. What is it?<br>
<br>
It is the Contest Online Scoreboard. Think of it as a live
constant UP-To-The Minute (well 5 minutes) of how people are
doing in the contest. No waiting for months and months to see
how you did compared to your peers. You know how you and others
are doing even DURING the contest. People are starting to get
setup to use it for the WIQP. <br>
Many of us here at the Yellow Thunder club have already done it.<br>

At times in the past I would get tired in a contest, and would
take a break. And of course loose time making contacts. But with
the scoreboard running, you get into little horse races, You see
how you are only X points behind station Z, so you push harder
to try to overtake them. Or you see station y rising up in the
board closing in on you so you push harder to try to keep your
lead.<br>
<br>
It is a LOT of fun, and adds more excitement to the contest!<br>
<br>
I invite all of you to join in on the fun. Most of the major
loggers have the capability, a few mouse clicks turns on the
reporting of your score to the page automatically, so once
turned on it's all automatic so it doesn't take any time away
from your operating!<br>
<br>
Hope to work ya on the bands, and see ya on the scoreboard on
Sunday!<br>
