[FQP] Orlando Hamcation Contest SuperSuite

[K1to at aol.com]

The  Florida Contest Group and Yaesu are pleased to present the very first 
Orlando  Hamcation Contest SuperSuite on Friday, February 12 at 6pm. Come 
join us at the  Orlando Hamcation, which is rapidly becoming the 
second-largest hamfest in the  United States, in what is arguably the best part of the 
country to spend a  February weekend.  


Friday night after the hamfest activity at the Fairgrounds is over, slip  
over to the American Legion Hall at 2101 Lee Road in Orlando just five short  
miles from the hamfest. Enjoy free pizza, $1 beer and soda, and a CW 
copying  contest with prizes for top overall entry as well as top entrant licensed 
<10  years and top entrant <30 years of age. In addition, come steal the 
secrets  of the top FQP mobile teams at the FQP mobile slideshow and partake 
of some of  that famous Florida hospitality in the Sunshine state, where it 
is presently 73  degrees and sunny. It will be just like Dayton but with 
better weather!

In addition to the hospitality and socializing, The FCG is pleased to  
announce that we'll be raffling off a brand new Yaesu FT857D to one lucky ham.  
This compact mobile radio covers 160M to 70cm (including 60M) and would be a 
 great starting point for a winning mobile entry in the 2010 FQP! Best of 
all,  you need not be present to win. If you just can't slip away from 
shoveling snow  in Vermont or Minnesota to come to Orlando, send money for your 
tickets via  PayPal to WF3C at _cgp at alumni.wfu.edu_ 
(mailto:cgp at alumni.wfu.edu) . You will receive a return email confirming  your ticket number and will 
be contacted via email or phone should you be the  lucky winner. Tickets are 
only $5 apiece, or 5 for $20! Additional prizes for  the raffle include a 
copy of the 2010 ARRL Handbook and the 2010 ARRL Antenna  Book.


You will have an opportunity to purchase tickets in person at the Yaesu  
booth at the hamfest all day on Friday and Saturday morning, at the SuperSuite 
 on Friday night, and online until February 12th at midnight. We will draw 
the  winning tickets at the Yeasu booth at the hamfest on Saturday, February 
13 at  3pm.

73, and I'll see you at the Contest SuperSuite!
