Well-known contester Bob Patten, N4BP, offered to help us improve the
EQP rules this year. We think he did a great job, making EQP more
similar to other contests and more compatible with logging software.
The new exchange includes SPC (state/province/county), which will make
things more interesting, especially for those collecting states toward
an Elecraft Worked-All-States award. The number of SPCs is used as a
multiplier, too.
The exchange also now has rig type and serial number encoded as a
single number, for those using Elecraft gear (others use power level).
The first digit indicates rig type (K2=2, K1=1, KX1=0), followed
immediately by serial number. For example, if I were using K2 S/N of
3000 (which I probably will :) I'd send 23000.
There are several other important changes related to QSO points and
scoring. Please review the complete rules at:

Please post any questions to the list. Please DO NOT call or e-mail
Elecraft directly with EQP questions.
See you on March 11th --
