 Hi all in the Oceania area 
 
Oceania Area Ladder Sprints Proposal
 
Is there any one keen / interested in a Ladder competition over 3 
modes over 3 bands, 30 minute sessions in each mode over 11 months best of 
10 score, with the lowest score dropped , 1 night a month but not in 
December . 
 
The 3 modes are CW, ( A Digital mode) , SSB the 3 bands are 80, 40, 20 ( 
the digital mode will be either RTTY , PSK ) the modes and times will 
 
You can enter 1 mode, 2 modes, or all of them it is 3 separate 
competitions lumped into one on 1 night .. 
 
After the 11 events the 1st 3 placing's get certificates and the winner of 
each mode will take away a trophy. 
 
This will be a self funding event the whole competition for the 11 events 
will cost you $ 5-00 total which is payable before you post your first log..

 
 
The self funding is to get certificates printed and the 3 small trophies 
each year. 
 
I am looking for 2 more trustees to help administer this and do a final 
rules draft so if you are interested please email me direct ! 
I don't care if you are at either end of the Islands or in VK .. 
 
At this stage its a feeler I do have some rules drawn up, I have been in 
touch with others around the world and they have given me some ideas and 
pointers. I have been working on this now for a number of months. 
 
Oceania is lacking in quick fire events maybe this will stir some interest 
other that Nets every night of the week ! 
 
ARRL , RSGB and others run these Ladder sprints and are very well supported 
 
This is for you it's up to you to respond with your thoughts .. 
 
I am not looking for a rewrite of what is on the table I am after your 
thoughts and I would appreciate constructive input and not a 4 word single 
line time wasting comment !! 
 
Please email the ZLDXC yahoogroup or me direct
