MDC QSO Party Web Submission 2024

MDC QSO PARTY ONLINE ENTRY
This form will serve as the Summary Sheet for all online entries

Please fill in this form top to bottom, as the availability of some options will change depending on your answers to the various pull down menus. 

Be aware that our scoring software reads your claimed contacts in phone and CW modes as well as the Maryland-DC Counties and Cities worked, and for in-state contestants the states, Canadian Provinces, and DX entities worked from what is entered on this form.  If you fail to enter all the Online Entry information, sadly we will not be able to process your entry.  We will then notify you of same, requesting your fill in the form again.

NOTE: Your category of entry is based on the location of your station during the contest.  If you are operating within the borders of Maryland and the District of Columbia then you select "MDC" from the pulldown menu below.  If your station is outside those borders you enter "Non-MDC" by selecting it from the pulldown menu.  These are the only to options, prohibiting you from entering contacts from both locations.

We have eliminated many of our pull-down menus, and replaced them with radio buttons.  The radio buttons more clearly indicate the choices possible, and the default choice.   The one remaining pull down menu is clearly marked. 

 

For your club to win our MDC Participation Trophy we need to know which Maryland or DC ARC(s) you belong to. If your club is subdivided into Chapters, include the Chapter's name.

Club Stations must either be using a club call sign or have multiple operators, or both.

Enter all operator call signs separated by spaces.
Enter first and last name, separated by a comma followed by a space.

Various Maximum Power Used levels may be used in your category.  Therefore we need to know which applies to you.  For this purpose QRP is up to 5 watts., LOW is over 5 watts and up to 150 watts, MED is over 150 watts and up to 600 watts, and HIGH is over 600 watts but still legal.

  

  

  

DX Entities Worked:  (Total number of DX entities worked excluding Hawaii, Alaska, Canada and the United States).  Be aware if you work a DX (as in DXCC) entity twice, you only get credit for the entity once as a multiplier.  You will, however, get credits for both contacts during point tabulation. 

List of all DX Countries worked. NOTE: Alaska, Hawaii, Canada and the United States are considered invalid as DX entities for the Maryland DC QSO Party. (Each country should in order consist of the call sign of the station worked, a comma, the country name, a semicolon and a space.)
- Each QSO using CW Mode will be worth 3 points
- Each QSO using Phone Mode will be worth 1 point each

NOTE:  The upload location is required.  Here you must upload a copy of your Cabrillo file using the .log file type.   Most logging software is capable of creating a Cabrillo file.  Please include your call sign as a part of the file's name. 

Files must be less than 2 MB.
Allowed file types: log.

To minimize errors your scores will be calculated automatically by computer using the information provided on this form and the method described in the rules.  Scores will be posted online as soon as possible after all entries are received.  Good luck, and 73s.
