<DIV></DIV>I agree this is a great idea<BR>Unfortunately I need to work
(photography) this week-end so I will miss the QSO party<BR><BR>I have a couple
of other things..........<BR><BR>I have been approached by Micky Cox K5MC to
manage a new QSO party<BR>I want to know if someone else is better prepared to
step up to the plate on this<BR>possible task ??? "Delta Division QSO
Party Contest Manager"<BR><BR>and what is your thoughts on when it should be
held and how to mold the rules, modes of the contest etc... My thoughts
are do it sim to the ARRL ten meter contest as in the <BR>op may op cw and phone
or single mode in the same contest<BR><BR>there are a lot of other thoughts,
like what week-end and maybe even a weekday sprint format<BR><BR>While looking
for feedback esp from LCC I was going to post these thoughts on the LCC
reflector, but it seems down ??????????<BR><BR>73<BR>steve<BR>kG5VK<BR
