Second Class Operators Club Hank Kohl Memorial CW Bash

[N4BP]

In typical SOC fashion, we inadvertently scheduled this first K8DD
Memorial CW Bash to overlap the QRP ARCI Spring Party.  Not to worry,
the exchange can easily be expanded to accommodate both events during
the overlap as per the following example (M0SOC):

RST Name SPC SOC# ARCI# (or Power)
559 Ryan G SOC 890 ARCI 13713


‘The SOC CW Bash’

To commemorate the passing of one of its founding members, the Second
Class Operators Club will be holding its first ‘SOC CW Bash’ on Saturday
April 2nd between 0000z and 2359z.  Many people will remember Hank Kohl
K8DD (SOC #69) as one of the main engines behind QRP ARCI , a
professional CW operator and a seasoned contester.  So as a fitting
tribute, the SOC hopes to combine all aspects of Hank’s talents and
passions in one event.

Any operator can take part in the ‘Bash’, and although not a contest,
the SOC will be issuing its very own special certificates for top
scorers in both a QRO and QRP section.  The club has planned to activate
all of its own call signs during various times of the 24 hour period –
W0SOC, M0SOC, W1SOC AND W5SOC – and although there are no ‘strict rules’
the format will be roughly as follows:

- Date/Time: 0000z to 2359z on Saturday 2nd April
                    (nearest Saturday to April 1st)
- Call ‘CQ DD’ in memory of Hank
         around the QRP calling frequencies:
         3560, 7030 (also check 7040), 14060, 21060, 28060.
         If QRO, please limit power to 100W
- Members to exchange RST, Name, and SOC Nr
- Non members to exchange RST and Name
- Stations worked on different bands will count as separate QSO’s

Please submit your scores to [hidden email] by Saturday 16th
April (if you solely use QRP, please note this clearly in your email).
