[FQP] [FCG] Portable Four?

[Georgek5kg at aol.com]

Ron, my recommendation would be for you to sign K8NZ/4, and call CQ  FQP.  
 
The protocol for in-state vs. out-of-state stations in the QSO parties,  
seems to be as follows:
 
If you are in-state, call CQ FQP.  This tells the listening stns  that you 
are in FL and want a contact from anyone in the FQP.
 
Out-of-state stations should call CQ FL.  This tells the listening  stns that 
they are NOT in FL, but want a contact with a FL stn.  
 
FWIW, Geo...

Hi  All,

Doing my first FQP from the home QTH this weekend.

Wondered  what some of you think the advantages or disadvantages of signing   
"portable four" or " /4" are for those of us that have call signs from  
another  
district.

Awaiting the wisdom of the  multitudes.

73,

Ron, K8NZ
