Competition was fierce in the 1998 Tennessee QSO Party, and there was no change going into 1999. We have also received our first entries from outside North America, and there were three of them. There are no changes in the TQP rules for year 2000. Mobiles may be worked again if they change counties.
Multipliers are Tennessee counties.
Tennessee stations may also claim one bonus multiplier for every five additional QSOs with the same county. Tennessee mobile operators may claim 500 bonus points for each Tennessee county from which they complete at least 10 QSOs. All bonus points are added after the geographic multiplier. Certificates will also be awarded to the highest scoring station in each U.S. State, Canadian call area, and DXCC country. TCG Headquarters station K4TCG and the TCG itself are not eligible for awards.
