Following the 2007 contest, we received several inquiries about immediate posting of individual results. All participants are encouraged to submit their claimed scores and comments on the 3830 reflector immediately following the contest. IMPORTANT: You must also submit your logs to the Texas QSO Party as described in the rules in order for your score to count. There are several reasons for the decision to not offer immediate claimed score posting here: - Numerous posting and contest sites already offer this capability.
- Developing and maintaining the databases and submission support on the web server is prohibitively time-consuming.
- This contest is more about having fun, seeing Texas, and operating than it is about internet bells and whistles.

The Texas QSO party is sponsored each year by the Northwest Amateur Radio Society to encourage contacts between Texas amateur radio operators and amateur radio operators throughout the world. This event is also an excellent opportunity for county hunters to add to their list of Texas counties worked. One of the planning goals each year is to have operators in each of the 254 counties in Texas. This is the best - and in fact it may be the only - opportunity to make contact with operators in some Texas counties. See the list of the number of licensed amateur radio stations by Texas county in the Resources section.. TQP mobile operators, be careful and have a good time. Fixed station operators, get on the air and look for the mobiles! Regardless of how you like to participate, get on the air, make some contacts, and have fun! |
