Just tossing out an idea - and I couldn't care either
way. How about Phone Sprint on Saturday 0000-0400 and
CW Sprint on Sunday 0000-0400.
I was slightly annoyed at how far down in the band the
RTTY test was on 40, and know that there were a number
of contesters who were involved in both the CW and
RTTY tests.
