I recently swapped some e-mail with Lloyd K3ESE, as a result of something he posted to the Flying Pigs QRP Club mailing list. I mentioned in passing that I’d worked W5ESE sometime ago. Lloyd then asked me if I knew about the QRP Barbership Contest.
It runs every fifth Wednesday, which is kind of amusing, and is CW only. As noted on the website, calling CQ ESE on phone just doesn’t cut it. Lloyd runs the contest and invites all stations whose suffix is ESE to be “barbers.”
