<http://www.ncccsprint.com/next_ns.html>Important rules:
1) Strictly observe the time limits . . see
http://www.ncccsprint.com/rules.html paragraph "Time".
2) After 2nd Q of couplet, please leave a pause for the cq'ing station 
to ask for fills.
3) QSY Rule. . After a CQ, we encourage stations to QSY more than the 
1KHz minimum required by the rules so as to avoid bunching around the 
center frequencies.     thus a "1,2" QSY guideline, as opposed to the 
"1,5" rule in the NAS.
4) Five weeks  of significant participation makes you eligible for W0YK 
wine drawing (KE3X, Awards Manager)
