[SCCC] ARRL CW Sweepstakes Strategy

[Timothy Coker]

Hi all, I'm hosting a couple of local SCCC members at my place for the Nov
ARRL CW Sweepstakes. That being said, while I build up some hardware, I
realized that I have not ever been serious about a Sweepstakes. I'd like to
ask fellow SCCC members about operating strategy from this geographic area.

It appears that 40 and 20 are the money bands, but that operators make
excursions to other bands also. Is this because people get crowded out on
the money bands, or the rate got low and a band change felt like the thing
to do?

What are the common off times that people find useful?

How long does it take to receive your mug?

Any advice about operating strategy would be appreciated whether Single Op
or from your past Multi-Single events.

73,

Tim / N6WIN.
