Hard to believe but the fall contest season is almost upon us.  Here's a 
chance to QSY from reflector debates for an evening and get back to doing 
what we do, contesting!  This coming Thursday start off with a joint 
PVRC/NCCC Webinar on the basics of Sprint contests with Hank Garretson W6SX. 
This presentation will be particularly helpful for newcomers to Sprinting. 
Here are the details:

Title: Sprints--How To Have Fun
Date: Thursday, September 1
Time: 9:00 PM EDT (01:00 UTC - Friday)
Presenter: Hank Garretson W6SX
Registration Link (free): https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/331266970
(the registration link is also located on www.pvrc.org under Upcoming 
Webinars)

The Webinar will conclude no later than 10 :00 PM EDT ( 02:00 UTC) so that 
attendees can take a short break and roll right into the 30 minute NS (NCCC 
Sprint), which begins at 10:30 PM EDT (02:30 UTC).  It's the perfect 
opportunity to sharpen your operating skills and test some of the ideas 
presented in the Webinar.  Details, including rules, scoring, results, and 
additional operating hints are available on the NS web page at 
http://www.ncccsprint.com/index.html

Pass the word & Good Luck!
