[CQ-Contest] NS RTTY this Thursday

[Ken K6MR]

Greetings Diddlers!

What? Already? Yep, just when you thought you’d had enough Sprinting over the weekend we’re ready to do it again! So did you try the REAL Sprint over the weekend? Intrigued? Want to get some practice before the next one? That’s why we’re here. And as a bonus you can make sure you’re ready for the BARTG HF RTTY this weekend. 

Pleased to work most of the Thursday night regulars over the weekend. Last week was pretty busy with some new calls dropping by to get a bit of practice in. So don’t be bashful: drop in for 30 minutes of Sprint fun.

WARNING: TIME CHANGE. Well, at least for most of us. If you run on UTC, no problem. If you are lucky enough to live in a state without DST, you’ve got it made. Continue as usual.
For those of you involved in the DST madness, local times are one hour later, as noted below. So if you wonder where everyone is when you check the bands, do a time check.

Here’s the recap with the amended times:

Friday, 18 Mar 2016, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday 17 Mar 2016 in NA)
-- 1845 - 1915 PDT
-- 2145 - 2215 EDT
-- (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
let me know so we can get them fixed. 

Report scores to 3830scores.com, and join us at 0300Z on 3610 kHz
for comments and questions (and dinner menus).

Diddle diddle,
