[FQP]Two weekends next year?

[Eric Smitt]

I too agree.  I think contesting should not absorb someone's life.  A
contest every weekend brings little time for other family activities, and
tends to bring problems into relationships.  Having FQP on 1 weekend, for
only 20 hours allows some time for family.  But having 2 weekends will
probably reduce participation.  This is only my thoughts.  I try to balance
amateur radio activity with other activities.
