[SECC] Announcement, Phone Fray, Tuesday Night

[John Laney]

I will be registering SECC teams for the NAQP SSB so let me know if you 
want to be on a team.  73, John, K4BAI.


The North American QSO Party is on 16 JAN so please join in during this 
Tuesday's Phone Fray for a practice session.  9:30 pm EST Tuesday 
(0230-0300z Wednesday).


The rules are identical...exchange name and S/P/C; mults per band; 100w 
max.  Use the NAQP SSB module in your favorite logging software.  No 
logs to submit, just report scores to http://www.3830scores.com./


The Phone Fray was designed to be a great practice opportunity for new 
contesters and veterans alike.  It's only 30 minutes long so time 
management, band changes, and run vs. S and P strategy are paramount. 
Please forward this note to your club and help new contesters build some 
skills.


The rules are here:  http://www.perluma.com/Phone_Fray_Contest_Rules.pdf


Suggested center frequencies are:  21.325, 14.250, 7.175, 3.800 (try to 
avoid 3.790-3.800, and lower in the band is better), 1.875.  Start as 
high as possible and work your way down in frequency.  160 is hopping at 
the end.
