MUSEUM SHIPS WEEKEND

0000Z 01 Jun 2024 - 2359Z 02 Jun 2024

PLEASE NOTE:   This is NOT a contest!
It is a FUN Event!

All stations that work at least 15 different ships of those participating (listed below) will receive a certificate
if they send a copy of their log entries showing these contacts.
Working the same ship on different frequencies or differrent modes DOES NOT count as 2 ships.
 Working a ship not listed will not count

To get your certificate, send a copy of your log for the 15 ships (include date - time-callsign - ship name)
and $5.00 to the following address by Sept 30, 2024.
(The $5 covers the cost of the envelope, postage (which has increased again) and printing supplies.
We will provide the large envelope to mail the certificates in.)  

We do not give certificates for SWL.

If you send a check with your logs, please understand that we don't cash the checks until we print the certificate.
It could be several months before your check is cashed. Normally we begin printing certificates after all the ship logs are recevied
so we can verify your contacts. If you still want to send a check please make it out to the name listed in the address below.

Send to:
Margaret Burgess KB2BRR
150 Schooner Ave
Barnegat, NJ 08005
USA

NEW: DX stations working at least 10 different ships on the list below,
will be eligible to request a certificate.
(This does not include 50 US states or Canada)

Please read the following 2 articles which should help explain some problems that arise when checking your logs.

Ships wishing to participate should send a note to  museum62@nj2bb.org
with the name of ship, callsign, location and contact info for person responsible.

Please read the rules for ships wishing to participate before contacting us.

The K1USN Radio Club has created a special "MSW Filtered Search" for DX Summit spots.
This unique tool will allow Museum Ships Weekend participant "chasers" to have real time capability to see
where all participants are being spotted.
