Fellow LM Amateur Operators,
As you probably know, to celebrate the 100 year anniversary of the ARRL, W1AW will be operating from every state in the US at least twice during 2014. The League enlists the support of Contest Clubs and other groups in the various states to operate multi-band, multi-mode using the home facilities of the members.
I’m proud to announce that our own Joe Trench, AA3B, VP, Delaware Valley Operations will be operating his station with the W1AW/3 callsign primarily on CW (his favorite mode) from April 2 to April 8. Chances are that if you make a CW contact with W1AW/3 during this period, you’ll be talking to Joe. Operators are encouraged to not provide their individual calls, so if you’d like Joe to be on the lookout for you, please send him an email.

I’ll be part of a 12 (or so) person team activating Pennsylvania as W1AW/3 in the ARRL Centennial QSO Party (http://www.arrl.org/centennial-qso-party). We will be operating from 0000z on 4/2 to 2359z on 4/8 (dates and times in UTC). We will be active on 160M, 80M, 40M, 30M, 20M, 17M, 15M, 12M, 10M and VHF. Modes will include CW, SSB, RTTY and possibly PSK31. I will be focusing on CW and my preliminary operating plan is shown on the attached spreadsheet. It is likely that I will also do some RTTY, SSB and perhaps PSK31 and there will be real-time changes made to the schedule as conditions warrant.
Our goal is 55K QSOs. Most of the guys are active contesters so we should hopefully be able to hit some big rates.
I hope to catch you during the week!
Joe Trench, AA3B
