NAQP CW/SSB/RTTY Rules (contd)

  1. Team Competition: You may wish to form a team with fellow NAQP participants. If so, your team must consist of 2 to 5 single operator stations whose individual scores are combined to produce a team score. Although clubs or other groups having more than 5 members may form multiple teams, there is no distance or meeting requirements for a team entry.

    Teams must be registered prior to the start of the contest. Use one of the following on-line forms to register your team:
    CW Team Registration: Registration Form
    SSB Team Registration: Registration Form
    RTTY Team Registration: Registration Form

    These team registration forms automatically provide confirmation of team registration by returned e-mail.

  2. Log formatting: All logs containing more than 200 QSOs must be submitted electronically (web upload, e-mail, CD, 3.5-inch floppy, etc.). The file format for electronic logs for NCJ-sponsored contests is Cabrillo (Version 2.x or 3.x). For those participants who use paper logging, please use the manual log entry Web-to-Cabrillo on-line forms available at the links given below to submit your logs. Paper log forms are available on the NCJ web site (log forms) for the convenience of those who log on paper during the contest. Printouts of computer logs will not be accepted, regardless of the number of QSOs.

    Please confirm that your output power is properly stated in the header portion of the Cabrillo log before submission. LOW indicates the use of 100W or less, while QRP indicates 5W or less. Submissions that indicate "HIGH" power will be used as check logs.

    Name your files with your call sign (i.e. yourcall.log). Please do not send binary files produced by a contest logging program (e.g. yourcall.BIN, yourcall.QDF, etc.).

  3. Log Submission: Entries must be postmarked no later than 14 days after the contest. Methods of log submission in order of preference are:
