Remember to let me know if you will be on a team for NA Sprint Phone
Saturday night. So far, I have only N4OO, K4BAI, and possibly KU8E. We
need some more. How about some SC or AL guys, in addition to GA? And TN
and NC? 73, John, K4BAI.
Greetings SSB contester,
You are receiving this email as someone who has participated recently in
a National Contest Journal (NCJ) sponsored SSB contest.
As a participant of NCJ North American SSB contesting, you have enjoyed
the fun and excitement we all share for these competitions in North
America. The NAQP tests are a blast, and we wanted to send a reminder
for another NCJ contest, that can be equally fun and take very little
from your weekend schedules.
How many States/Provinces can you work in 4 hours? 30? 40? All?
We would like to invite you to join us for the fastest 4 hours of SSB
contesting, the semi-annual NCJ North America sprint SSB. The next
running of this contest has been recently rescheduled to minimize
conflict with other contests, and is coming up this Saturday night:
****0000Z-0400Z, Mar 17!****
NCJ sprint contests are short duration contests that, unlike the NAQP
contests, offer High Power, Low Power and QRP categories. The sprint
QSY format facilitates operations from modest QTH stations allowing
competitive operations from smaller home stations as well as big guns alike.
There is an easily learned standard exchange format that is supported by
most major contest logging programs. Info on this exchange is provided
in the rules for the sprint, that can be found at this link:
http://www.ncjweb.com/sprintrules.php
If you need assistance with setting up your logging software (macros,
etc.), resources can be found with your local contesting club, or feel
free to contact the NCJ SSB Sprint Manager, Chris Tate N6WM
(ssbsprintmgr at ncjweb.com) with any questions.
You can potentially earn the ARRL WAS award in a few hours. Join us for
the challenge and find out how!
Thanks and we hope to catch you on the air this weekend!
Respectfully
Chris Tate, N6WM
