OQP 2007 - 2007/03/21 10:02
Hello Canadian Contesters
Mark the weekend of April 21/22. Contest Club Ontario invites all Amateurs to work as many VE3/VA3's as possible in the 50 Counties, Cities and Districts that subdivide the province of Ontario. This is the first year that CCO has undertaken the sponsorship of this contest. We will have our approximately 300 members out in force along with many others for whom the ONQP is their major contest of the year.
Certificates will be available to the top scores in each Province/Territory outside Ontario. A plaque will be awarded to the high scoring Canadian outside Ontario.This is in addition to a large number of awards for those inside Ontario. We will have three bonus stations on, VA3CCO, VA3RAC and VE3ODX, all providing 10 point QSO's. Take a look at the revised rules on the web at http://cco.ve3xd.com/oqp/index.htm , noting particularly the addition of two more multipliers and the change in the time schedule. "Whose Going to be on" will gradually fill up as the contest approaches.
It's CW and phone from 160m to 2m, 2 points for CW and 1 point for phone. At the bottom of the cycle 40m is very long for inter-Ontario QSO's and we really need those QSO's with other Canadians! 20m should also be good for Ontario to "others". The other bands may tend to be "QSY Specials".
Good luck and See you in one month!
73 Bob VE3KZ for CCO.
