NCJ Sprints are domestic contests (for the most part).  The Europeans work RTTY
on 7.040 for some reason.  I have only been around RTTY a few years, I don't
know if this is tradition or bandplan.

But it would sure be good to separate these two events onto separate weekends.

I'll make sure to do a lot of 40m the first night, when the Sprint QRM will be
gone.
