ARRL Centennial: Southern California Operation - SoCal Coordinator K6NA

February 2014

SCCC is the host club of record for the Southern California operation using W1AW/6 as part of the ARRL Centennial year celebrations. The regional activity is coordinated by K6NA.

The week of operation begins at 0000UTC Feb 12th and ends at 2359:59UTC on Feb 18th. Active stations who can put out a strong, clean signal, and handle pileups of domestic and DX stations, may apply to be a W1AW/6 Host station.

Hosts must be ARRL members, but Hosts may invite non-members to operate as guests. Please download and read Rules and Guidelines for Operating. Use a logging program which can produce ADIF files.

Please access www.arrl.org/centennial-qso-party to learn details. The goal is to put W1AW/6 on the air and make thousands of contacts from several sites in the Southwestern Division
All bands and modes may be used from distributed locations, simultaneously, but it is critical to avoid same-mode, same-band duplication in a given time slot. Hence you must coordinate with K6NA for your assignments, which can be chosen in two-hour time slots (start 0200Z-… start 1600Z-…) as indicated in our schedule below.

Study the existing UTC schedule by day of week. Determine open time slots which you can support. Choose band and mode for each slot desired. Use the Request Form, visible below the assignment schedule. Your Host request and data choices will be auto-sent to K6NA. The schedule will be updated often.

If you prefer to make a direct email request, follow this format in the message body:
