Information and rules for 2004 QRP Afield


Date:

Saturday, 18 September 2004
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Time:

Best six hour contiguous period during 11:00 AM EDT to 11:00 PM EDT.  You may work throughout the entire 12 hour period and select your best six hour period.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Exchange:

NE-QRP members:   RST, State/province/country, NE-QRP Number
Non members:   RST, State/province/country, Power
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Bands and Modes:

160M, 80M, 40M, 20M, 15M, 10M.
Any mode (CW, SSB, AM, PSK, etc.); all count the same.
Only one contact per station per mode per band.

Standard QRP frequencies are recommended within each band (or generally accepted frequencies for those modes for which there are no specific QRP frequencies).  But, please, let's spread out a little -- not everyone within a kilohertz of 14.060.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Scoring:

Power/Location Multiplier:

   1 point per contact if you are QRO (above 5 watts) and operating from a permanent location.
   2 points per contact if you are QRO and operating from a field or mobile location.
   5 points per contact if you are QRP (5 watts or less) and operating from a permanent location.
  10 points per contact if you are QRP and operating from a field or mobile location.

All contacts must be made from a single power/location category  (i.e., the category is to remain the same once selected).

Plus: Count QSOs (once per band) with WQ1RP as THREE (3) contacts, subject to scoring above (e.g., a QRP field operator will score each legitimate WQ1RP contact as 30 points).
 

Final score will be the total number of contacts (including each WQ1RP contact counted as three) multiplied by the power/location category multiplied by the SPC multiplier (see below).
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Multipliers:

Each S/P/C worked counts for one multiplier point and can be counted only ONCE PER BAND.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Submission of Results:

Email your scoresheet with a copy of the contest log (noting the six hour period that you select for scoring) and (please) any comments/photos concerning your setup, location, experiences, etc., no later than 15 October, to:  K1CL@arrl.net

or mail your entry to:
    Chuck Ludinsky, K1CL,
    6 Pracing Rd,
    Chelmsford, MA 01824-1922
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Multi-Club Stations:

Will not be permitted. That is, simultaneous operation of multiple transmitters (on the same or different bands) under a single call sign is not permitted. However, multi-operators per club call is fine, with one transmitter in operation at a time.
