Title: AWA AM QSO Party Information
Post by: w8khk on February 08, 2022, 02:38:37 PM
On February 7th, KW7Y asked "When is the 2022 AM QSO Party?"  

But he posted his query as an "Announcement", so a reply post is not possible.

His Query:
"QST Magazine says Feb 12-13
 AWA website says Sept 24-25"

The CW QSO party information is here:
https://www.antiquewireless.org/homepage/news/

Excerpt: "The CW QSO party begins on Saturday evening, February 26, at 6:00 p.m. EST, or 23:00 GMT.  AWA operators at the museum site in Bloomfield, NY will begin calling CQ on 1.821 MHz, CW, and will listen on or about that frequency for callers."

But the AM QSO Party of interest here WAS scheduled for February 12th, as reported by ARRL in QST.  

Since this is only one week after the REA/iNetRadio AM Rally Operating Event, the AWA AM QSO Party has been rescheduled for September, as documented by Joe Fell, W3GMS, on page 50 of this edition of the AWA Journal:
