Words related to D-DAY, including the beaches of Normandy, make up the June NAQCC Alphabet Challenge. This was the first time I participated in their monthly Challenge. I have to admit that I had a lot of fun. I've spent a great deal of time this month operating QRP. Bascially, you use the letters and numbers of call signs you've worked to spell out words included in the month's challenge.
Most words came pretty quickly early in the month. Finding all the Rs was a little harder. That final T was the most difficult! WA4FAT in Birmingham, AL came to my rescue. I had a lot of fun and plan on participating regularly. I finished up on Friday, right before Field Day. Hey, just in time to start the NAQCC Field Day Challenge!
Here's my list of works, and Call Signs I used. Thanks to all for the contacts.
