[FQP]An early reminder of an operating event you won't want to miss!

[Jim White, K4OJ]

The Florida QSO Party will be held on April 24 & 25, 2004.

It is now 88 days 13 hours and 19 minutes until the Florida QSO Party.

How do I know that? Check out our web site at:

http://www.floridaqsoparty.org/

In addition to a countdown calendar, there is access to Rules, Records 
and FQP FAQ's. You can see who holds the record for any given Florida 
county, and if you are a county hunter needing those last few FL 
counties this is the place to go - see the "counties on the air" section.

Many records were broken in the 2003 running of the FQP and those 
results are coming to the web site.

Thanks to the large amount of mobile activity, working all 67 of 
Florida's counties is truly achievable.  Last year we even had a 
European entrant sweep the counties!  Florida station are encouraged to 
go to the web site and click on the "counties on the air button" and let 
us know what counties you will be activating for the FQP.

Please mark your calendars and set aside the weekend of April 24 and 25 
for a truly fun event.  Florida hams please spread the word, circulate 
this e-mail and have your local clubs mention the FQP dates in their 
upcoming issues.

The Florida Contest Group would like to thank you for your support of 
the FQP.  Thanks to your participation it has grown every year and we 
hope you will join us again.
