TN Section Update

Sunday September 1st is the annual running of the Tennessee QSO Party.  The Tennessee QSO Party, sponsored by the Tennessee Contest Group (TCG), is an annual event in which Tennessee amateur radio operators are encouraged to get on the air and contact as many stations as possible in the USA and around the world.  Many of these stations are looking to Tennessee to fulfill their needs for awards such as Worked All States (WAS) and the USA-CA award for working all US counties.  Tennessee has some particularly rare counties.   With propagation improving as we move toward the peak of Cycle 25, this year’s TN QSO Party should be one of the best!

The party starts next Sunday September 1st, at 1700Z (1:00 PM EDT) and runs until 02:59Z (10:59 PM EDT) September 2nd, for a total period of 10 hours.  All amateur bands are valid, with the exception of 60, 30, 17 and 12 meters. You can use all modes:  phone, CW, or digital.  To see the complete rules which include good information such as county abbreviations and suggested operating frequencies by mode, go to https://tnqp.org"
