The George S Ladd Radio Club (Golden Gate Chapter) cordially invite all Telephone Pioneers (TelecomPioneers) Amateur Radio Operators in the United States and Canada to participate in contacting as many members in as many chapters as possible, including members of the United States Telephone Pioneer Association. Phone Users: Call “CQ Telephone Pioneers”. CW and digital modes, call “CQ TP”.
Scoring:
Each mode is scored separately.
Each PHONE and CW/DIGITAL QSO is worth one contact point. Total score for that mode equals the contact points times Chapters worked in that mode. Only one multiplier may be taken for each chapter worked.
You may work the same station on different bands both for Phone and CW/Digital.
New this year! |
You may work the same station in your own chapter on different bands, both Phone and CW/Digital.

For example if you became a Telephone Pioneer in 1988, and are a member of Chapter 138, then the exchange would be “88 138”.
