Everyone loves a party - right? - and a party in the form of the annual Kansas QSO Party (KQP) will give members of SFTARC a chance to come to the so-called Sawyer Memorial Antenna Farm in Edgerton the weekend of Saturday, August 26 and Sunday, August 27.
The schedule for the 2023 Kansas QSO Party calls for on-the-air operations to begin at 9 a.m. on the 26th and continue until 9 p.m. that day. More of the same is planned for the 27th, but the final portion of the party will be an abbreviated one, as the search for contacts far and wide will start at 9 a.m. and conclude just six hours later at 3 p.m.

Operators and loggers are needed, so those who have a little time on their hands are encouraged to drop by Del Sawyer's vintage camper - party attire not required but always welcome - and do what they can to put the spotlight of attention on Kansas.
