SUMMARY:ARLX013 Solar Eclipse QSO Party Seeks Amateurs and Radio Enthusiasts for Global Experiment
DESCRIPTION:Newington CT October 2\, 2023\nTo all radio amateurs\nSB SPCL ARL ARLX013\nARLX013 Solar Eclipse QSO Party Seeks Amateurs and Radio Enthusiasts\nfor Global Experiment \nARRL is proud to partner with HamSCI to help promote participation\nin the Solar Eclipse QSO Party (SEQP). SEQPs are a series of global\nexperiments — and you can be a part of them. Solar eclipses will\npass across the continental United States on October 14\, 2023\, and\nApril 8\, 2024. \nDuring these celestial events\, you can join thousands of fellow\namateurs as part of the largest crowd-sourced event for ham radio\nscientific exploration. The SEQP is part of the Festivals of Eclipse\nIonospheric Science and is for learning more about how the\nionosphere works. \nAll radio amateurs need to do is operate using any mode and any band\nfor all or part of the day\, then upload their logs. Participation\ncan be from anywhere; you don’t need to be near the path of the\neclipse to contribute valuable data. You don’t even have to be a\nlicensed ham to participate in the experiment (only to transmit). \nFor SEQP contest and rules\, visit\nhttps://www.hamsci.org/contest-info \nFor information on the Gladstone Signal Spotting Challenge using CW\,\nWSPR\, and FST4W\, go to https://www.hamsci.org/contest-info . \nIf you’re an SWL or AM DXer\, you might be interested in the Medium\nWave Recording Event. Go to https://www.hamsci.org/mw-recordings/\nfor more information . Or just get on the air and help provide data\nto better understand the ionosphere. \nThe first SEQP is on Saturday\, October 14\, 2023\, from 1200 – 2200\nUTC\, and participants may use any band or mode (except WARC bands).\nResearchers will take the submitted logs and work to derive\nmeaningful observations from the data. \nARRL members can find out more about the SEQP by reading “The Solar\nEclipse QSO Party: A Fun Way to Support Radio Science” in the\nSeptember/October 2023 issue of On the Air magazine. The On the Air\npodcast will feature the article’s author\, Gary Mikitin\, AF8A\,\ntalking about the event. The episode will go live on October 12.\nNNNN\n/EX

SUMMARY:Sixteenth Annual Ohio State Parks On The Air – Amateur Radio Contest
DESCRIPTION:Hello OSPOTA Fans\, \nThe 16th annual Ohio State Parks On The Air (OSPOTA) contest will be held on Saturday – September 9\, 2023. This contest as always held on the first Saturday following the Labor Day holiday. \nThe OSPOTA contest was conceived with three main goals in mind:\n1. To promote public awareness of amateur radio and Ohio’s beautiful state parks system\n2. To contribute to the recognition that Ohio has a very diverse and wonderful ecology\n3. To promote camaraderie within the ranks of Ohio’s Amateur Radio Operators \nYour participation has allowed these goals to be achieved. We agree it is a lot of fun to get out in a natural setting with your radio and see how well you can do at working operators in the beautiful Ohio State Parks. \nThe contest hours will be from 1400 UTC to 2200 UTC (10 am to 6 pm ET). \nThe contest committee has been busy going over the rules and information about the contest\, please check for any changes in the rules \nPlease be aware only Electronic (Cabrillo files) will be accepted for entries. No text\, pdf\, csv\, adif\, bin\, photos of logs\, paper\, etc. Comparing contest logs is being changed and we need your log file in standard Cabrillo format. \n\nWe hope this year’s OSPOTA is bigger and better. \nAt this point\, there will be 75 Ohio State Parks open for 2023. (ODNR reports there will be a new State Park opening in 2023\, but per our rules\, it will not be considered as an active park until the following full year – 2024). \nAs in the past – you can let us know which State Park you plan on activating and we’ll keep everyone informed. Send your planned park info to: PlannedParks@ospota.org and please include the call to be used. \n73 from the OSPOTA Contest Committee \nKB8UUZ\, W8PT\, WG8X\, W8KNO and KB8UHN \n\n  \nSource: https://ospota.org/
