Please notice that the minimum age of oldtime equipment now is 30 (!) years
(no longer 25 years). The remaining rules did NOT change.
The HOMEBREW & OLDTIME-EQUIPMENT-PARTY is a liberal event: there are no
taboos like exceeding the 5W QRP limit or operating commercial equipment.
So we meet 'trendy' multi-IC low power test equipment as well as loving
restored S-Lines from the 50ies or even One-Tube-TXs from the 20ies.
In all cases don't forget to test your equipment in time to avoid a
"bombshell" during the HOT-Party. Which has happened not only once...

P.S. If you don't know us yet:
The QRP-Contest-Community (qrpcc) is a supra-national network of qrp
enthusiasts (at present about 150 promoters from 12 nations) pursuing the
organization and promotion of QRP Contests since 1992.
The qrpcc may be viewed as a support group taking care of the QRP'ers
interests in a self-help manner.
Because of its international design the qrpcc does not seek any affiliation
with national ham radio organizations but is open to any friendly cooperation.
Since 1996 the qrpcc carries out the ORIGINAL-QRP-Contest, designed for
genuine QRP gear. The HOMEBREW & OLDTIME-EQUIPMENT-Party (HOT-PARTY) since
1997 also is organized by qrpcc, taking place at 3rd Sunday in November.
The newest qrpcc event is the QRP-MINIMAL ART-SESSION at Ascension Day .
The promoters of qrpcc are private persons supporting the idea by personal
participation in organizing, log-checking, translating, printing address
labels etc. or by contributing to postage costs.
Hpe cuagn in HOT-PARTY!
Best 73 de Hal, DJ7ST
