2026 7th Call Area QSO Party

The Plan

David, N7LL, and I will activate eight Washington and five Idaho counties in the 7th Area QSO Party, May 2 and 3, 2026 (UTC).  We will use my callsign of K7TQ.  All of our operation will be CW.  We will try to be on both 20 and 15 in each of the counties.  You can work us each time we change counties or bands.  Watch the RBN for K7TQ and it won't hurt our feelings if you feel inclined to spot us.  We might even self-spot when we have cell phone service.  We will try to be on frequencies ending in 0365 MHz, such as 14.0365 or 21.0365 MHz.  There are other QSO parties going on those days, so we will have to be frequency agile.

Here is our schedule of when we hope to enter and leave each of our xx counties.
