EXCHANGE: RST, QTH (State/Province/Country) and MI-QRP Membership Number

SCORING: Stations may be worked once per band for QSO points. All member
contacts are 5 points.
Non member contacts in W & VE are 2 points.
Non member contacts outside W & VE are 4 points.
Multiply total QSO Points, on all bands, by the total number of
States/Provinces/Countries worked on all bands for total points. U.S. &
Canada
do not count as countries.
BONUS POINTS: Total points may be multiplied by 1.25 for home brew RX
or TX
w/commercial RX or TX combinations.
Multiply by 1.5 for a total homebrew station. Home brew = any kit or
home made
gear, it is not necessary for you to have built it yourself.
Those using homebrew gear on some, but not all bands, may claim credit
by
listing the proper bonus points in each band's "BPts" column on the
score sheet, adding them up and dividing by the number of bands used.
Enter the average (round to 2 decimal places) in the "Totals" row,
under the
"BPts" column. I'll do this for you if you give me adequate rig info on
each
band.

AWARDS: Certificates awarded by class for high score in each
State/Province/Country.
A legible, chronological log is required within 30 days after the
contest.
Please include your name, call, address, equipment description and
Power output

decision
on any contest matters rest with the contest manager.
