As in the NCJ Sprints, the NS QSY rule is a minimum of 1 KHz in all cases.
(but there is no 5KHz rule in NS).
Reminder of the NS (and NS LAdder) rules:
"NCJ NA CW Sprint rules with the following modifications:
* The same station can be worked multiple times provided 1 contact
separates the contact in both logs on the same band. Back-to-back contacts on
different bands are OK.
* NAQP Multipliers count once per band, as in NAQP (Note: KH6 is a
multiplier)
* The 5kHz QSY rule reduced to 1kHz
* 160 meter QSOs permitted, as in NAQP
* 100 watts or less power, as in NAQP
* 30-minute contest period
* Scoring is total QSOs times sum of multipliers on each band, as in NAQP"
Reemphasizing the important point . . don't start early or end late.
