Well, mostly in the books anyhow. We have a few weeks to get logs submitted and results posted. The group at Fulton 248 had a splendid time setting up and spending the day running radios, band conditions could have been more in our favor, but all in all, I think the first year for this was better than we hoped for. There are ideas in the works to continue to promote the event. We'll also be standing up a mail list/reflector to keep people better informed, as well as offer a platform to share ideas.

This contest is still very much in the early planning stages, but we have marked a date we want to attempt this on. September 25, 2021 will be the first ever (that we know of) Masonic Lodges on the Air contest, a.k.a. CQ More Light!
The goal is simple, activate as many Masonic Lodges as possible and try to log a QSO with them. More rules and scoring will be forthcoming, but for now, know that the date for this is intended to be the Saturday of (or immediately following) the Autumnal Equinox. You do not need to be a Freemason to participate in this contest, in fact, we would encourage any Masonic Lodge to open their doors (or property) to host an event with local HAMs.
Keep checking back as we expand into Social Media and provide further content related to the upcoming contest.
