Greetings Diddlers:
Regarding 3Y0Z, it looks like we are probably still ok with our spots on
the band this week. But if a miracle happens and they are active
Thursday evening, be prepared to move up the band as needed. Most of us
recognize the regular participants, so I don't think it will be too
difficult to find each other.
I trust a few of you were able to jump into the BARTG Sprint this last
weekend. I noted quite a few NS regulars in the 3830 list. K4GMH has a
great score in the Expert HP class and looks to be the top NA station!
Besides the CW Sprint, the XE RTTY test is this weekend, so some
activity using diddles. You've probably got everything still setup from
last weekend, but if you want to make sure it all still works please
join us Thursday evening for our usual dip into the sprint pool.
Here are the details for our usual Thursday evening session:
Friday, 5 Feb 2018, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday, 4 Feb 2018 in NA)
-- 1745 - 1815 PST
-- 2045 - 2115 EST
-- (others in-between those two)
-- 160: 1805 and up
-- 80/40/20/15/10 +80kHz up from the band edge (unless 3Y0Z is
lurking!)
-- Same band dupes ok after 1 intervening Q or band change.
-- 1 kHz QSY rule, otherwise standard Sprint rules
-- Mults per band
-- 100W power limit

For something new (and exciting?), give the live scoreboard a try at
https://contestonlinescore.com . Set up your logger to report and
select the NCCC NA RTTY SPRINT on the web page to display the scores.
The Help menu pulldown will give you the info needed to setup the most
common logging programs.
Don’t forget to report your score to 3830scores.com, and join us at
0300Z on 3610 kHz (+/- a few for ongoing groups) for comments and
questions (and dinner menus).
Diddle diddle,
Ken K6MR
