BC QSO Party 2026

Club members met at the arena lounge for the annual BC QSO Party event. This year we started off with Ralph doing CW contacts and followed with some sideband contacts. We operated for a few hours making 25 CW contacts on 20m and a further 22 on phone across 20,15 and 10m. Our preliminary score was 5060 points. We all felt we did very well for the short time we were active.

Following the activation, we made our way to the White Spot only to be greeted with a long wait. Jim checked with the nearby Sammy J’s to learn they had open tables and we migrated to that location. Five hams at the table each eating one hamburger! It was an appropriate finish for the fun time together.
