For those who need a weekly dose of RTTY contesting, we continue the 
NS (SPRINT) format practice sessions,
0145-0215Z. Dupes OK after one intervening QSO on the same band, or 
on another band.  Great SO2R practice.

The 30 minute RTTY sprint practice will be held on Thursday night, 45 
minutes before the CW NSLadder:
0145to 0215Z Aug. 22,  Thursday night in NA, 6:45-7:15 PM PDT, 
9:45-10:15 PM EDT, etc.

15, 20, 40, 80m;  +80 khz from bottom;  above 3583 on 80m.
15m has been reliably open for some time,  start there.
100w, Sprint rules - see link below.

RTTY NS Ladder coming up in early September.  Watch for announcements 
from K6MR.

If you are intimidated by sprint rules, don't worry, just get on and 
CQ (then move 2 khz) or call someone and acquire the freq.

A new page has been set up on the NCCC website with the RTTY NS info.
It has several links to all sorts of "how to" articles.
