[Cwo] CW Open 2014

We could make session 3 1800Z-2200Z. But, that would mean only two
hours between sessions 2 and 3 - which is probably okay.

Sept 6 sounds like the least problem. Session 3 would butt up against
NA Sprint which is really bad, but it isn't a direct conflict. Could the
session time(s) move to allow some dead time before Sprint starts?

August 30 is no good as it does produce a conflict with YO. 
That’s really a bad date.  So we are back to Sept 6, 20,
27.   Among those what’s the field of
conflicts?

I reviewed 23 AUG
2014.  Conflicts are OH and HI QPs, and perhaps KS as it's not yet
defined on the internet (as Chuck mentioned, W0BH would know).  In
addition, Tokyo Ham Fair 2014 is a conflict.  


 


CO QP is not a
conflict, perpetual date is "Saturday of Labor Day."  SARL
HF CW is not a conflict (31 AUG 2014).  We've already determined that
YO DX is not a conflict.  NAQP SSB is not a conflict (3rd full
weekend in AUG).

BWQP is FOC's twice
yearly open event. It goes 24 hours, from 0Z to 2400Z, and is
international. So, we would face a CW only event whose 24 hours overlaps
our 12 hours. So, it's not good.


 


We ruled out the
August weekends because of a YO-DX conflict and some others. We thought we
were okay with Sep 13 because we could find no listed conflicts, but now
learned that FOC had chosen that date back in April, and duly notified
Bruce Horn.


 


So, we have Sep 20
and Sep 27 as viable alternatives.

I've been QRT for the
past several days.... week.  Been on a boat with many $$$ for service
so I simply shut down.  Not sure what I've missed. catching up on
*many* emails.  What is BWQP?



 


Generally speaking,
any state QP should not be a serious problem conflict wise due to their
general lack of activity. The exceptions: CQP, PQP, 7QP.

Well... I had a QSO
with KZ5D today and he sent me an email sent to Bruce Horn and Ward in
April selecting Sep 13 2014 for BWQP. We could have avoided the current
conflict if Bruce had posted it on his calendar. But...in any case, Sep 13
will present a conflict during the hours when we coincide – so for
12 out of 24 hours.


 


Can we push it to Sep
20. I don’t believe there were serious issues with that date either.
It’s early enough to where making the change, now, should not be
disruptive. I sure wish the FOC website’s on-air and calendar
sections were up to date. We could have avoided this situation had they
been so. Clearly, the WA7BNM calendar is also not up to date so
there’s a real possibility of other conflicts arising. Not
good.
