[SECC] Announcement: Next NCCC NS Sprint Ladder Competition

[John Laney]

PROPOSAL: 29th NS Ladder competition, NSL XXIX, starting the 2nd 
Thursday in January, Thursday night January 10 in NA.

--  Skip Jan 3 due to major NCCC focus contest RY RU the next weekend.
     -- NS rules
     -- Bands 15-160m - frequencies:  +40 except 160: +15
     -- Being considered: two-person teams, details to be hashed out.

   -- Note: *The schedule gives a 3-week run-up to the NAS CW which will 
occur on Saturday Feb 2 (in NA).  That attracts a few more players and 
is a publicity handle for the contest. *

If ok, I'll notify WA7BNM . *Errors in dates??*

We have a few new folks on the NCCC-Blue reflector thus:

WHAT IS A LADDER ? An NS Ladder is an 8 week competition, normal NS 
rules, but for which 5 of the 8 weeks count toward a final cumulative 
score.  See article by N6ZFO in NCCC November JUG starting on Page 8, 
which can be accessed at http://nccc.cc/newsletter.html

COMMENTS??? Are we OK with this?
