PCARS Contesters and Friends of PCARS:
Here’s a heads up: Our Black Squirrel Contest Group will be putting K8BF on the air the weekend Sept. 20-21 (that’s next weekend) participating in the Washington State Salmon Run. That’s their state QSO Party.
The event runs from 1600UTC on Saturday to 0700UTC (Noon until 3AM) on Sunday and then there is a break. The contest then continues from 1600UTC on Sunday until it finishes at 2400UTC (Noon until 8PM) Sunday evening. So this is a 23 hr contest. It is a CW/Pho only contest. Sorry, no FT8 or any digital at all.
We will be entering in the “Unlimited” category. It’s the one that allows Multi op/Multi transmitter entries. I would like to see a couple of CW ops, in addition to our regular pho ops, join us so that we can make a very good showing in this contest.
We will be gathering, starting around 10am on Saturday to review the rules. Hope to see a lot of you at the club site for this event.
