#### WCF SECTION PRESS RELEASE #26-04 - 1/22/26:  FLORIDA QSO PARTY FOR
2026 SET FOR APRIL 25 - 26



The 2026 Florida QSO Party will be held from 1600Z April 25, 2026 (1200
EDT - April 25,2026) to 0159Z April 26th, 2026 (2159 EDT - April 25,
2026), and 1200Z-2159Z, April 26th, 2026 (0800-1759 EDT - April 26,
2026).  The Florida QSO Party is sponsored by the Florida Contest
Group.  Since it’s re-introduction to the contest scene in 1998, the
Florida QSO Party has become one of the fastest growing and most popular
State QSO Parties around today. This is due, in part, to the tremendous
effort by the mobile teams to activate as many counties as they can in
order to allow those participating from out-of-state, to achieve a
county “Sweep” (working all 67 Florida Counties:
https://floridaqsoparty.org/florida-county-abbreviations/).

Florida stations operating from home are also valuable, since that
increases the chances that stations will work all counties! Regardless
if you are a serious or casual participant from Florida, or from outside
of Florida, the Florida QSO Party was designed to be a FUN operating
event. Why not give it a try.

to submit an entry you may go to https://floridaqsoparty.org/
