2026 PA QSO Party Bonus Station
The 2026 Bonus Station is K3ZMC operating from Montgomery County.
Walt Skavinsky, KB3SBC and PAARC President writes:
PAARC
is celebrating 50 years of organized amateur radio in the Pottstown
area. The club traces its beginnings to a group of local operators who
began meeting in the early 1970s and formally organized around the
installation of the WR3ACD two-meter repeater in 1975. Today, the club
has 93 members and continues to support amateur radio through operating
events, repeaters, licensing, mentoring, technical programs, public
service, and fellowship.
K3ZMC
will operate from a single location at 815 White Pine Lane in
Pottstown. The planned operation will include three networked stations,
with one focused on CW and two focused on SSB. The operators will use
N3FJP logging software and a single coordinated serial-number sequence.
Antennas will be spread across the fire company property, and the club
plans to remain active across the available contest bands throughout
both operating periods.
PAARC
is honored to serve as the 2026 Bonus Station and looks forward to
giving operators across Pennsylvania and beyond the opportunity to put
K3ZMC in their logs.
