The Northern California Contest Club regularly organizes contest
practice sessions for other contests. These are good opportunities to
debug many setup issues before the real contest.
These practice sessions are useful to:
*Test your antennas to make sure they have survived the winter so far
*Test RTTY interface and tweak sound card levels
*Verify your TX polarity is correct and your TX signal is free from RFI
*Test logging software, function key macros, MMTTY setup (do you really
want AFC or NET enabled?)
*Test SO2R setup
*Practice moving stations to other bands for QSOs
