> The autumn sprint season is upon us. The RSGB Contests Committee is 
> trying a variation on the successful 80m CC contests, with the CW sprint 
> on Wednesday 3rd October and phone sprint on 10th October. See 
> http://www.contesting.co.uk/hfcc/rules/rsprint.shtml  for details.
> 
> The autumn EU Sprint contests take place on the next two Saturdays, 
> phone on 6th October and CW on 13th. Unfortunately the organisers of the 
> RSGB HF Convention have plonked that event down on the CW weekend. EU 
> sprints are on 20, 40 and 80m, with activity typically starting on 20m. 
> See www.eusprint for details.
> 
> The whole point about the sprint format is that you cannot sit on a 
> frequency all the time, you must QSY after CQing and making a QSO. 
> Agility and skill come to the fore. Get your spikes on and get ready to 
> sprint!
