Greetings Diddlers!

Yes, it’s that time of the week again. But this week is different: it’s the last session before the real RTTY Sprint this upcoming weekend. So if you are considering jumping into the real Sprint, please join us Thursday evening and make sure you’ve got everything ready to go.

Pretty busy session last week with NCCCer N6ZFO dropping by and VE3YT putting everything together for a first showing. Welcome Bill and Vic, hope to see you on a regular basis. 

First time change warning: DST becomes active next Sunday, so next week’s session will be 1 hour later in local time. The good thing is that if you forget, you’ll be early!
And the usual recap of details:

Friday, 11 Mar 2016, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday 10 Mar 2016 in NA)
-- 1745 - 1815 PST
-- 2045 - 2115 EST
-- (others in-between those two)
-- 160: 1805 and up 
-- 80/40/20/15 +80kHz up from the band edge 
-- Same band dupes ok after 1 intervening Q.
-- 1 kHz QSY rule, otherwise standard Sprint rules.
-- 100W power limit.

Please visit http://www.ncccsprint.com/rttyns.html for complete rules
and links to other info. If you find any problems with the web pages, please

Diddle diddle,
