Greetings Contesters -





 
The results are in for the NCCC Sprint Ladder, 'NSL XV - Summer 2012'.  This 15th running of the NSL saw 65 unique stations participating over the 8-week competition period.   The final results show several familiar faces atop the five Divisions:
 
Atlantic:           Eric ('Ty') Tichansky, NO3M
East Central:   Bob Hayes, KW8N
West Central:  Todd Dravland, WD0T
West:               Danny Eskenazi, K7SS
NCCC:             Ken Keeler, N6RO
 
We had a record number of 'NSL Regulars' with perfect participation in all 8 weeks of the ladder:   NO3M, N4AF, W1UJ, WI2E, KW8N, W4NZ, N4DW, WD0T, K0AD, K7SS, W7WHY, W7OM, N6RO and N3ZZ.   Also congratulations to W0BH and K6UFO who had perfect attendance in NSL-XIV but were inadvertantly ommitted from the results listing.
 
A unique aspect of the NSL is the awarding of bottles of California wine in a random weighted drawing, based on order of finish as well as frequency of participation across the 8-week event.   This time we congratulate our two 'NCCC wine winners':
 
- Todd Dravland, WD0T
- Jim George, N3BB
 
Special thanks to W0YK's Muns Vineyards for donating the wine (www.munsvineyard.com), and our returning 'Guest Contest Director' for NSL XV - Matt Murphy, NQ6N.
 
NSL XVI will start January 4, 2013.   For more information see www.ncccsprint.com.
Hope to hear you soon in the 'Fastest 30 Minutes in Radio'!

73,
