Hurry Up!

Hope you had fun in the 2022 NEQP! Please upload your log.

Non-W1 stations – Check out our list of planned 2022 mobile and fixed station activity by county!

The NEQP is one of the many QSO Parties that is part of the QSO Party Challenge. You can learn more at http://www.stateqsoparty.com/

Did you know there was a New England QSO Party in the 1950s and 1960s. It was similar … but different from today’s NEQP. Take a look at the “old days”!!!

The list of plaques to be awarded in 2022 is here. Note: We have three new plaques: the top single operator QRP DX entry – sponsored by the Greater Bridgeport (CT) Amateur Radio Club, one for the top score from North Dakota, sponsored by Steve/AA4AK, and one for the USA Single Operator low power entry (from W5-W6-W7-W0) sponsored by Steve/W3SM. Rudy/N2WQ has taken over sponsorship of the USA Single Operator QRP plaque.
