NAQCC Sprint Tuesday night!
Our October Sprint is this coming Tuesday evening local time (October 8, EDT -
8:30-10:30PM, CDT - 7:30-9:30PM, MDT - 6:30-8:30PM, PDT - 5:30-7:30PM), which
translates as Wednesday October 9, 2013 0030-0230Z in all cases.
I will refer you to the proper URL:
http://naqcc.info/sprint201310.html
There you will find all the details as to time, frequencies and other important
information.
This is a monthly event that caters to the CW veteran, the CW newcomer,
straight key and bug fans. All are welcome to participate (this includes QRO);
but you must use QRP power levels to compete for awards.
If you've been hesitant to join in our sprints because you hear other sprints
running at breakneck speeds, have no fear. Our sprints are geared to the
newcomer to CW and/or contesting. Virtually everyone including the many veteran
contesters who regularly enter our sprints will slow down to YOUR speed to help
you make your contacts.
NOTE: For this, our Ninth Anniversary sprint, we are repeating what we did for
our 100th sprint in February. This time we have NINE extra special prizes which
will be awarded to nine different participants in a random drawing. The
drawing, as in February, will take place in a 'semi-live' web cast. That will
be on Columbus Day, October 14 around 2300Z. The web cast can be accessed here
(http://naqcc.info/prize_drawing_9th_anniv.html). Details of the prizes are
being kept a secret until the web cast.
The NAQCC Ninth Anniversary runs from 0000Z October 6 through 2400Z October 12,
a full seven days as usual. We now have 40 operators to man our 10 calls (N1A
through N0A). Special QSL cards and certificates are available for working the
anniversary special event stations. A N#A spotter page will be available at
(http://naqcc.info/spot_schedule.php) to see where and when the N#A stations
will be operating. Full information about the NAQCC 9th anniversary celebration
can be found at: http://naqcc.info/main_n3a.html
