If someone will pass the information to me I would be glad to put up an activity map similar to the one I did several years ago for the LQP -- for example see this map <http://www.no5w.com/LQPAnnouncedPlans.html>  and others on the site. That map resides on my web site but a link to the 2018 map could be placed on the LQP website -- I think that's how we did it before.

Info that I would need is 

For Fixed Stations: Call Sign, Parish, Mode (Mixed, CW Only, Phone Only)

For Mobiles: Call Sign, Parishes in the order they will be covered, Mode. 

If a mobile is going to use APRS that would be useful info also but not required.

I hope to be mobile again this year but have some work to do on the rolling shack if that is going to happen. It sure would be nice to have a few more mobiles on the road.

Dear Fellow Louisiana Contesters,

As members of the LCC and sponsors of the Louisiana QSO Party, we would like to invite

each of you to help us put the State of Louisiana on the contest map again this year.

The LaQP will be held on the weekend of March 17, 2018 and will run from 14:00 UTC until

02:00 UTC on March 18, 2018. These times translate to 9:00am to 9:00pm local time. In 2017

we received 67 logs including from Louisiana and outside the state. The Super Check Partial

list of contesters has 144 callsigns with a Louisiana address.

In 2018 our goal is to activate all 64 Parishes in the state. We do have several that love to

work as rovers. This helps get more parishes activated during the contest. Please consider

helping make 2018 LaQP a big success this year, even if you operate for only a short period

of time. You don’t have to work the entire 12 hours. If we could get more people to operate this

would really increase the interest by those outside of the state and would make it easier for all.

Please feel free to contact any of us in the LCC if there is anything we can do to assist. Let’s

make 2018 the best and biggest LAQP on record. We will again be activating N5LCC as the

bonus station on all bands and modes.
