[SECC] Announcing SNS Thursday Night

[John Laney]

Announcing the NCCC's (Northern California Contest Club) weekly Thursday
night running of the SNS.



The Slow Speed NS practice is from 0200z to 0215z (Friday UTC, Thursday
local time).  That's starting at 10:00pm EDT, 9:00pm CDT, 8:00pm MDT and
7:00pm PDT, local time Thursday.



Frequencies:
20 m      14037-14043
40 m      7037-7043
80 m      3537-3543



In general spend 5 minutes on each band starting with 20.


DUPES:  NO same band dupes this week or next week following format of the
regular NS.
POWER: 100 watt limit.



If you don't hear a CQ send a CQ and don't worry about the couplet since
this is only practice and hopefully an introduction to sprints for newbies.
I think stations might answer a CQ more likely than call CQ themselves.
With that said remember that newbies are listening get up the nerve to jump
in so don't hesitate to make Q's.



A special thanks to the high speed regulars who make the SNS go!



Recommended maximum speed of 23 WPM.



NS 0230z to 0300z this week regular NS Sprint Rules CW (except NO dupes
allowed) See N6ZFO's announcement.
