New England QRP Club : The Excitement is Building....

Truly a sad day. I hadn't been to a Hosstraders in over 15 years. I just recently moved back to NH and was planning on making it a regular event for me. Read the full announcement below:

To All Radio Amateurs...

February 2007

From the Hosstraders, Joe K1RQG, Bob W1GWU, and Norm W1ITT

Re: Hosstraders Tailgate Swapfest

The October 2006 event was the last Hosstraders. After careful consideration, we have decided to discontinue hosting the event. A combination of factors have led to this difficult decision. We've been running Hosstraders for a third of a century, but we've always done it "our way" and we feel that the result has been an event unique in the Amateur Radio world, certainly in New England.

I recently moved back here to 1-land (I grew up here) and the first thing I had to do was join NEQRP. I am now member 661. I practice 100% QRP both in the shack and in the field. I primarily use my ATS-3 but will be adding a Sierra in the coming months.

I'm looking forward to my first Lobstercon - I just ate a 3lb lobster over the weekend, it's good to be back in New England.
