Here's what I set up in the seven keyer memories of my computer logging 
program (NA).

It should do about 99% of what you will need!


1.     CQ MQP DE KG8JK KG8JK  TEST

2.     K8XYZ NR 123 EMME

3.     TU DE KG8JK TEST

4.     KG8JK

5.     (the other guys call)

6.     (optional - see below)

7.     TU NR 123 EMME


With NA, an most other computer logging programs, when you press "Insert" it 
will send the other guys call ("K8XYZ"), that you have already typed in, plus 
the exchange (#2).  #5 will be the other guys call... whatever you have typed 
into the callsign field.  The computer keeps track of and sends the qso 
number, for which I used the example of 123.

I don't use #6 for much of anything.  You may want to put in a "?" (for when 
you want a repeat, etc.) ,   "QRS AGN" for when a guy may be going too fast 
for you, etc.

With #4 and #7, you can tune the band and work guys without having to use a 
paddle, etc.   

Of course if you don't have a computer, you'll have to send it by hand.



So a typical MQP QSO would go:

CQ MQP DE KG8JK KG8JK TEST

     K8MR

K8MR NR 1 EMME

     TU NR 5 OTSE

TU DE KG8JK  TEST

   
And so on and so on, hopefully many times!


I'll be mobiling though the northern LP, including EMME.   Hope to work you 
many times, from many different counties!
