7:00 am: Nevada QSO Party


October 12, 2024

Mark your calendars for Saturday, October 12th, because we’ve found a perfect spot to operate and have some fun with this year’s Nevada QSO Party.

The club’s latest outdoor event takes place at Majestic Park on the city’s Northwest side, not far from Lone Mountain Road and the 215. The exact address: 10275 W Alexander Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89129.

We’ll start setting up at 7:00A in the shade of a large gazebo on the northeast side of the park, distanced from nearby softball fields. There is lots of parking.

The site offers plenty of room for antennas, good elevation and an exceptional line of sight to the East/Northeast.

Our goal is to have fun, enjoy what should be gorgeous fall weather, and enjoy each other’s company. We are not looking at this outing as competitive contesting for the Nevada QSO Party, but an opportunity for a good time.

And who knows? Hopefully we’ll make a few good contacts.

Our call in frequency will be 146.550 simplex.

So bring your gear and join us, or just stop by to visit. Please bring your own food and beverages.

If you’re a newly licensed operator or new to Vegas, we’re extending a special invitation. It would be great to meet you.
