As reported earlier, the CW Open is this Sat (GMT). It's three "sessions" of four hours each and each session is a separate contest.  The first is at 0000z, then 1200z and finally at 2000z. The purpose is to have significantly different propagation for each session world wide. That's rather unusual and makes it interesting in it's own right.

Rules at: http://cwops.org/cwopen.html

There is a team competition (see the rules).  I'll take input and build an NCCC team or two. If you're going to be on let me know how many sessions you plan to do. For instance:

AD6E @ KH6TU  0000z (check)  1200z (check)  2000z (check)

Team scores are the sum of all team members in all three sessions.

In my case, I'll do my best to be on for all three, but with hurricane Lester dropping by on Sat I may not be very loud with the tower at 25 ft instead of the usual 70 ft. Assuming I have any power.
