It is coming to your favorite frequency band this weekend…The Colorado QSO Party. This ham radio contest….er, party….is sponsored by the Pikes Peak Radio Amateur Assocation. These guys have gotten sponsors for over 50 plaques to be given out, which is an amazing accomplishment. If you don’t win a plaque, there are plenty of certificates, too.
There has also been a major push to get all of the Colorado counties activated. If you are interested in operating mobile, this will be a great opportunity to go activate a rare county. Frequency coverage includes all HF, VHF and UHF bands except 60 meters and WARC bands.
Turn on the radio, get on the air and work someone this weekend.
