[SECC] QRP Sprint on 80M tonight

[John Laney]

Hello all:

80 M has been good lately and should continue to be good during the down 
part of the cycle, particularly in the Winters.  Of course, we get long 
skip, so local stations are often hard to work.  Matt, K4AQ, has brought 
to my attention that the new and fast-growing North Americna QRP Club 
has a two-hour 80 meter CW sprint for QRP and QRPp stations tonight. 
Jan 21, 2005 0130 to 0330 UTC.  80 meters.  Any one with any power may 
participate, but only QRP and QRPp stations are eligible for awards. 
3555-3565 and 3705-3715 for slow speed stations.  Double your score by 
using a hand key for the whole time operated.  Try to avoid QRM to FISTS 
stations on 3558.  "Also check near 3579 for Color burst crystal QRPp 
stations."  I have no idea what that means.  Exchange:  RST + SPC + 
NAQCC # if you have one or power out for non members.  More points for 
members.  See:  http://www.arm-tek.net/~yoel/spring_0105.html for full 
details.  I hope I will be able to join in part of this Sprint.  73, 
John, K4BAI.
