[CQ-Contest] Early CW Sprint Practice -- Thursday

[Bill Haddon]

The NAS CW Sprint is on Saturday .  .Join NCCC on Thursday night for a
vigorous, challenging half hour practice --  the 6th week of NS Ladder XXII.

PST:  1830-1900 Thurs (0230-0300Z Fri UTC)
Bands:  20, 40, 80 and 160. (xx.040+ or ~1812-1818)

Differences in rules from NAS CW:
-- Band mults
-- 1,1 KHz qsy  (rather than 1,5)
-- add 160m (optionally)
-- some added mults  .  HI, DC + more Carib countries than NAS.

Earlier weeks of the current ladder have had 40+ participants and max rates
~125/hr or more. . . the pileups and speed (and maybe dodging k1n callers)
will renew and sharpen your sprinting skills.

RE K1N:  if there's QRM from K1N callers move up in frequency (there are no
CW W1AW transmissions at that time).
