I think this is the once in 6 or 7 year event when the RTTY Roundup bounces to the second weekend to not interfere with New Years Day. I agree that 40 is gonna be a zoo and I love the NAQP CW contest too so it's a shame I have to miss out on it this time.

The NAQP CW and the RTTY Roundup contests are both scheduled for this coming Saturday. With a lot of the RTTY activity occuring around 7040, and the NAQP suggested frequencies of around 7030, 40 meters has all the potential of becoming a total zoo.

The only hope I can see is for cw guys to use the lower part of the band, down into the Extra Class portion, and for the RTTY guys to stay as high as possible, above 7080 for domestic QSO's, and above 7040 for DX.

It's a shame that these two great contests got scheduled for the same weekend. I would have loved to enter both, but the January NAQP CW has got to be the "funnest" contest of the year, so that's where I'll be.
