LCC members,

Who is interested in participating in a distributed multi-multi 
operation during the 2017 IARU HF contest in July?

If you participated in the ARRL Centennial QSO party in 2014 when the 
LCC operated as W1AW/1, you know how much fun that was and what the 
pileups were like.  A similar opportunity is on the horizon.  The LCC 
has been offered the opportunity to use the call NU1AW/5 for the 2017 
IARU Contest as a distributed multi-multi!  This will be a 24-hour 
all-out effort to make many thousands of QSOs!


Requirements:
1.  All transmit and receive antenna must be in the state of Louisiana
2.  Participating stations will be assigned a specific time slot to 
operate on a specific band and mode
3.  Participating stations are to call CQ and run - not tune around 
looking for stations to work.  Our job is to put the NU1AW multiplier on 
the air.


Logistically, it may be preferred for some Louisiana stations that are 
capable of operating with multiple transmitters and high power to be the 
operating locations, and host groups of LCC members at their stations.


If this proposition interests you, please let me know right away, and 
provide some information.  Here's an example of the info needed.  Use
