QRP to the Field is an annual operating event to encourage QRPers and SOTA stations to get out of the house and operate portable from the field or a local summit. Find a nice operating location for yourself, or combine it with some buddies for a day-long adventure. QRPTTF encourages participation by QRP hams of all skill levels.
There's not much SOTA activity in Eastern Ontario due to a lack of suitable summits, but we do have a cornacopua of POTA parks which are great places to operate from.
Both CW and SSB is used in this event. CW speeds are usually in the 13-20 wpm range.
It takes place Saturday, April 21, 0800 to 1800 EDT, and the event uses the standard QRP frequencies.
From what I can find this event, and the NJQRP Skeeter Hunt in August, are the only two that have an SSB category.
More information and the rules can be found HERE.
Stay safe out there !!
