Indeed a red letter contest for NA Sprint.  I am sure four AL
participants was an all-time record!  Keep up the good work.

Team Scores:  SSC#1  80,115.  Appears that TCG somehow co-opted NA4K 
onto its team without Steve's knowledge or the score would have been
90,447.

SSC#2  19,644

This Week's Contests:

1.  CWOps CWT Sprint.  0300-0400Z CW Thurday.  This is tonight, 
Wednesday local time.  80, 40, 20 CW.  Exchange:  Name and CWOps # or 
SPC.  Look around the "8" frequencies, such as 3518, 3528, 7018, 7028, etc.

2.  Fox Hunts continue on Thursday night local (40M 7030-7050) and 
Tuesday night local (80M 3550-3570).  Thursday nights foxes will be KZ5J 
in TX and WC7S in WY.  0130-0330Z Fri and Tues.  Work only the two foxes 
each time.  Run no more than 5W.  Exchange:  RST, SPC, Name, Power.

20, 40, 80M CW.  Maximum speed 18 WPM.  Maximum power 100W.  Exchange: 
both calls, #, name, SPC.  One kHz QSY rule.

0230-0259Z NS Ladder.  Same rules except no maximum speed and 160M is 
included.

4.  RTTY Practice Sessions for CQ WPX RTTY.  22002230Z Thursday and 
0230-0300Z Friday.  Uusual CQ WPX RTTY Rules.  Same time as NS Ladder. 
RTTY stations please stay above 7050.  CW stations please stay below 7050.

5.  YL-OM Contest.  CW, SSB, Digital.  All bands except WARC and 60M. 
14Z Fri to 02Z Sun.  Work only the opposite sex.  Exchange:  QSO#, RS(T) 
+ ARRL Section, VE province, or country.  Low power multiplier.

  160, 80, 40 PSK31.  Exchange:  Name + either "OM" or "YL" + SPC.  I 
can't seem to get contest sponsors to understand that "local" start and 
stop times won't work in contests because it makes it impossible for 
operators to work each other if their time zones don't overlap.

7.  CQ WorldWide WPX Contest, SSB.  48 hours of Sat/Sun. UTC.  80-10M 
RTTY.  Exchange:  RST + serial #.  More points for 80/40M QSOs than for 
higher bands.

WARC.  CW, Phone, Digital.  Exchange:  RS(T) + SPC or NH county.  There 
is a power multiplier.

9.  South African Radio League Field Day Contest.  10Z Sat to 10Z Sun. 
160-10M, CW, SSB.  Maximum power 100W.  Exchange:  RS(T) + Category. 
Your category will be "G."  FD stations will send "S" for single op or 
"M" for multi op.  I've never heard an SARL FD station.

10.  Asia-Pacific Sprint, CW.  11-13Z Sat.  40 and 20M CW.  Exchange 
RST + Serial #.  Work only A-P stations.  Non A-P stations may run high 
power.  One kHz QSY rule.  This contest will be primarily 40M for us, 
although some western Asia QSOs might be possible on 20M.  Can be a lot 
of fun.

11.  Dutch PACC Contest.  12Z Sat to 12Z Sun.  160-10M CW, SSB. 
Exchange:  RS(T) + serial # or Dutch Province abbreviation.  Work only 
Dutch stations.  There usually is a great turnout of Dutch stations and 
this can be a lot of fun.

12.  Key Club of Japan (KCJ) Top Band Contest.  12Z Sat to 12Z Sun. 
160M CW.  Exchange:  RST + Continent Abbreviations (e.g. "NA") or

17.  NCJ North American Sprint SSB Contest.  00-04Z Sun (Sat night 
local).  20, 40, 80M SSB.  Exchange:  both calls, #, name, SPC.  I've 
seen no announcement about teams for this one.  So, if anyone wants me 
to be on a team, please e-mail me.  Thanks.

18.  Straight Key Century Club Weekend Sprint (WES).  Sunday 00-24Z. 
160-6M CW.  Exchange:  RST + name + SPC + SKCC# or "none."  (some 
sources say that non-members send power instead of "none.")  Extra 
points for QSOs with each centurion or tribune members (indicated by a 
"C" or a "T" after their member number).  25 bonus points for every band 
you work F6HKA on.  F6HKA is a great operator with a strong signal.

19.  Classic Exchange, Phone.  14Z Sun to 08Z Mon.  160-2M.  SSB, AM, 
FM.  Exchange:  RS + SPC + Rcvr and transmitter manufacturer and model.

Really looks like something or several somethings for everyone this 
weekend.  Well except no designated QRP contests (other than the Fox Hunts.)

Hope everyone has a lot of fun and many QSOs.  Be sure to send me your 
claimed scores unless they are posted to 3830 or available on the SKCC 
website.

73, John, K4BAI.
