Louisiana Qso Party – 2015 

     The Louisiana Contest Club is pleased to announce that the Louisiana Qso Party (LaQP) was held on March 14, 2015. The event ran from 9AM Local to 9PM local. Complete rules are available in html or pdf at the links below.

     The club station N5LCC was manned by LaQP committee members WM5H and K5ER. Last year, this station made 856 Qso's and gave out the 100 point bonus to 66 of the 88 log entrants. This year, we had a 10% increase and logged 944 Q's. We operated HF, mainly SSB, with some CW and RTTY. N5LCC is entered as a check-log and not in competition with other participants. Since part of the interest is to give Louisiana parish confirmation to as many as possible, the entire N5LCC log has been uploaded to LoTW.

     The rules below list a number of categories in which certificates can be won. A complete list of 2014 winners is available @ Results. If you participated this year, be sure to turn in your log and you may be on that list for 2015!

     Once again, a regularly updated list of logs received will be available at the link below. The log submission period ends 30 days from the contest. Once all logs are cross checked, a complete list of all participants and winners will be posted. Winner's certificates will be mailed shortly thereafter.

NOTE: We were recently made aware that several who submitted a log received a bounce notice, and their log has not shown up in the logs received. I am still not sure what caused the issue, but thanks to Scott, KA9FOX at QTH.com, we believe all logs have been retrieved, posted at the link below, and will be entered into the log checking software. If you have emailed your log and your call doesn't show up in the "logs received" page, please drop me a message at this address: k5er (at) arrl (dot) net. 

     On behalf of the LaQP contest committee, thanks for making this another great event.

73,
Bobby, WM5H; Jeff, AC5O; and Mark, K5ER
