>> 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.
