Quadrupeds Are Learning to Dribble, Catch, and Balance Upcoming ICRA papers show off a trio of talented quadrupeds

Come see us this weekend at the Salem Holiday Market at the Oregon State Fairgrounds

This upcoming weekend, May 4-5, 2019, is the annual 7th Area QSO Party,
(7QP), one of the largest QSO parties in the US. The 7QP, along with the
Indiana QSO Party, the Delaware QSO Party, and the New England QSO Party
all occur on the same weekend, so there should be lots of activity on
the bands! They don't all have the same start or end times but there
will be activity from 1300Z on the 4th to 2359Z on the 5th. (And if you
use N1MM+ for logging, no matter where you are, you can run all four
parties at the same time in the same log).

The 7QP itself runs 1300 UTC Saturday to 0700 UTC Sunday (6 AM PDT to
midnight PDT). 7th call area stations work everyone, others work 7th
area stations only. Work stations once per band/mode. 7th area
mobiles (and those participating in other concurrent QSO parties or
contests) may be worked again as they enter new counties.

This event has something for everybody, and all modes (No FT8 though, as
the exchange is not supported). If you are a county hunter, there should
be a lot of rare counties on the air during the weekend. Dick Frey,
K4XU, will be roving as N7XU, activating some eleven rare counties in
Oregon. Other mobile stations should be on the air as well. If you are
an EmComm person with HF capability, get on to learn NVIS propagation
paths between your location and the rest of the 7th call district
locations.
