see http://www.ncjweb.com/sprintrules.php

--  Suggested freq.: 3850, 7225 and 14275 kHz on Phone ( I don't agree with 
3850 and 14275, but I'm not in charge of the real NAS), let's stay with 
those freqs for  the practices, but......  Spread WAY OUT, in the real 
thing.  See K7SS's report in the recent NCJ, on how he won this thing, last 
time.  He parked near 14195 - I heard him there and immediately  got on 
...198.  The rate went up, from casual ops., some new mults!

-- Report scores near 3830 LSB after the practices,  at 0400Z (8 PM PST) on 
the weekly NCCC
contest net (both Thur. and Friday).  Real-time score collecting, bragging, 
excuses, antenna checks,
advice...

Next week,  CW NA Sprint rules, Thursday and Friday,  Feb. 9 and 10 local 
times.
