The CW Sprint is Saturday night starting at 0000z and ending at 0400z.
(that's Sunday night Zulu time)
SSB is the following Saturday night, same times.

Just like last time, there will be a plethora of midwestern and east
coasters on 40 meters at the start of both Sprints.   We'll be spending
the first 10 to 15 minutes there.  The Society Of Midwest Contesters
will have about 25 people there and the TCG will also have some of their
guys there.  I believe some  PVRCers will be there as well.  The more
that show up, the better!

It worked out very well for everyone in February... 20m wasn't as
cluttered at the start for the west coasters and there was plenty of
activity on 40m.

Also, every country in CQ Zone 7 and 8 are multipliers in the Sprints.
So, HP, YS, 8P,  J6, J3, TI, J8, VP2E, KP2, KP4, YN..... all of those
countries are highly sought after multipliers.  Everyone would really
appreciate it if you could get on for a while Saturday night and hand
out some valuable multipliers!
We basically need a QSO #, your name and your QTH, as well as your call
and the call of the person you're working.

Here's where the rules are.

And lastly, if there are any W9s or eastern W0s... as well as any W8s in
SouthWest Michigan (Kalamazoo area), I've got room on an SMC team for
you!  Even if you only plan on getting on for 15 minutes near the end of
the contest, let me kno
