All below get only a participation point. Soapbox: K3WWP: Thought this was going to be hard with 13 names and 100 letters, but I proved myself wrong by finishing up around 2200Z on March 5th. That's the quickest I've finished a challenge in a while now, and it's simply because I had more time on the bands early this month than I've had in a while. Time is the key to mastering a challenge. Making the QSOs is easy. It also helped that DX conditions were pretty good so far this month as DX calls seem to have a better variety of letters than W/VE calls. So don't be daunted by the large number of letters. Just get on the air and work stations and the letters will come quickly till you get down to the last few, then you have to tune around more looking for those specific letters you need. Have fun. Oh, and as of 2200Z March 5th, I need the number 8 to also finish the NAQCC EU Chapter challenge. So that one should be finished quickly also. HB9CBR: My first entry - it s fun to participate. 73 Bruno HB9CBR WU1V: I really enjoy these alphabet challenges. This one only took me 12 days for a sweep because I've been very active in March, and very active DXing QRP with lots of fun results. And lots of variety in DX callsigns helped too! The Challenges are a wonderful way to stimulate QRP operation, which I've been enthusiastically doing now for over 3 months. I'm doing about as well with 5 watts that I used to do with 100! Viva la QRP!! 72, Rick, WU1V KI1EE: This one took me most of the month. Kept busy out side moving lots of snow around. Still about 24 inches around the house but its going fast now. Enjoyed the challenge, its always fun. 73 Dick VE3FUJ: Interesting challenge this one. Since I made the suggestion of 7 of the names, and it was accepted, THAT, made it an extra challenge for me to complete it. Well as you can see from the entry, I made it! With only 4 days to go I was still short 2S's and 4O's. O's seemed to be in short supply this time around. Brion 3011 W2JEK: A GOOD CHALLENGE AND LOTS OF FUN ESPECIALLY TX5K AND SU9VB WHICH ARE NEW COUNTRIES FOR ME. USED MY FT-840 AT 5W TO WIRE ANTENNAS. PREMISE: This new challenge created by Tom WY3H honors several of the submarines that have served in our nation's defense over the years. It was a pleasure for me (K3WWP) and Tom to operate from the USS Requin which is now permanently docked in Pittsburgh, PA a couple years ago. Also for Mike KC2EGL and I last year. TIME FRAME: The first day of the month 0000Z through the last day of the month 2400Z RULES: Just make ALL the following names (ignore the descriptive info in parentheses) from the letters in the call signs of stations you work: REQUIN (moored in Pittsburgh, PA) LOS ANGELES SKIPJACK POLARIS ALLIGATOR (first sub after the civil war designed to sink wooden boats) COBIA (suggested by Bob K9OSC - moored in Manitowoc, WI) (following seven from Brion VE3FUJ) THRESHER SCORPION NAUTILUS OCTOPUS SEA WOLF TARANTULA MOCCASIN The 21 different letters involved are: A B C E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U W You can use each letter in a call TWICE. For example you could use K3WWP for 2 K's, 4 W's, and 2 P's. Subsequent QSO's with the same station cannot be used for additional letters. For example, no matter how many times you work K3WWP, you can only use his call for 8 of the letters in the words. See the Alphabet Tutorial page for an excellent way to track any and all of our alphabet type challenges. AWARDS: A certificate and Participation Point go to everyone making all the words and submitting their report before the deadline. A Participation Point goes to everyone making at least 1, but not all the words and submitting their report before the deadline. PRIZES: Some challenges involve a prize. Check the Prize page in the main section of the web site for more info. LOGS: For your report, list the words you made and the station used for each letter in the word. The number of stations listed must be the same as the number of letters in each word, even though you use the same station for more than one letter as in: WORD - K3WWP, N2OD, WA8REI, N2OD Note how N2OD is listed for both the O and D. You may also include comments about the challenge. Please preface any comments you want posted with "SOAPBOX:" so we will know what you want posted and what is private. Send your results to: E-mail:  You must type that address into your email program. Subject must read: (your call) NAQCC (month) Challenge For example: K3WWP NAQCC February Challenge Postal mail: Hap - K7HAP 8532 Canterbury Dr. Annandale, VA 22003 All entries must be RECEIVED before the 10th of the following month at 2400Z. |
