The NAQCC July 2019 Challenge All challenge info such as rules are now in the hands of Gary K1YAN. Email him with any questions in that regard at  .The results on this page are the responsibility of Hap K7HAP. Email him with any questions in that regard at  .UNCLE SAM PREMISE: He is the relative that almost everybody has heard of, but what do you know about his family tree? Possibly the earliest reference to Uncle Sam is in the 1775 lyrics to Yankee Doodle. One story of the origin of the name Uncle Sam goes something like this. Samuel Wilson was a meatpacker from Troy, NY. He worked for a contractor, Elbert Anderson, who supplied rations for the War of 1812. It was required that supplies be labeled with the company name and where they originated. Anderson’s were marked with EA - US. When a coworker was asked what the label meant, he replied "Elbert Anderson and Uncle Sam", referring to Sam Wilson. The name stuck. Samuel Wilson died in 1854 and in September of 1989 a Congressional joint resolution designated his birthday as “ Uncle Sam Day”. Uncle Sam’s early images varied … one 1860 image made him look like Ben Franklin’s brother. The first " media " image of Uncle Sam was on the July 1916 issue of Leslie’s Weekly magazine. It ran with the caption " What Are You Doing for Preparedness ? ", a reference to ongoing WW I. A recruitment poster from 1917, by James Montgomery Flagg, set the image as that of a tall, white haired, man with goatee, top hat and red and white striped trousers. Flagg used his own face as a basis for the Uncle Sam in this poster. This image caught on and saw extensive use during WW II and in countless political cartoons over the years. TIME FRAME: The first day of the month 0000Z through the last day of the month 2400Z RULES: Just make ALL these words from calls of stations you work subject to the General Challenge Rules. (Any spaces in the phrases should be ignored. For example the challenge phrase "INVERTED V ANTENNA" should be treated as if it is the single word "INVERTEDVANTENNA.") YANKEE DOODLE SAMUEL WILSON WHITE TOP HAT WHITE GOATEE JAMES MONTGOMERY FLAGG LESLIES WEEKLY MAGAZINE The 87 total letters contain these 21 different letters : A D E F G H I J K L M N O P R S T U W Y Z 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 General Rule #5 for more details on what callsign letters can be used.

Still, the bands were not 'fun' this month or, to put it another way - you gave me a REAL challenge this month! :^) Thanks for what you do! AK3X: Another fun challenge. Finally got the last "I" needed between storms on the 22nd of July. I usually only get time to operate during prime thunderstorm time in the Summer. Although it is nice to complete the challenge with lots of time to spare, I think it is more fun when it goes down to the wire... keeping me on the air more.. 72 Peter PA9CW: This month it was easy. I activated two parks in PA. That was PAFF-0059 and PAFF-0098. So I made al lot off qrp QSO’s. CU in the next challenge. 73, Tonnie G4TGJ: My first attempt at one of these challenges - I didn't check my log until 2 days before the end of the month and couldn't quite get all the remaining letters in time. All the QSOs were with my homebrew 40m transceiver. WT4U: Mad scramble at the end for those last few letters! SKCC sked page is a good hunting ground—wish ours had as much action. Fun contest as always and gets me on the air. K1YAN : Plymouth Propagation Particularly Poor. My first word was not completed until week three of the month at which point all stations with an "E" in their call seemed to go into hiding. Not an "E" to be had for the last two words. Hoping to do a better job in August. VA7UNX: Another fun challenge! Lots of QSOs picked up during a couple weeks of vacation, then a scramble at the end to try and fill things in. :-) Hugh Brown W2JEK: LAST LETTER NEEDED WAS M. ON JULY 31 HAD A THUNDER STORM THAT EVENING BUT CLEARED UP LATER. FINALLY FOUND AND HAD QSO WITH W3WMR THAT ENDED AT 2300 UTC, JUST ONE HOUR LEFT. 72/73 DON WB4OMM: Good Day Fellow Challengers! Well, got enough QSOs for at least one word this month. Looking forward to the August challenge. 72/73! Steve WA2FBN: Hoping for better band condx soon! 72 Ken |
