NAQCC Sprint Wednesday night!

Last May we had one of only two sprints with under 100 logs submitted in the 
past three years. That was due to many members heading off to the Dayton 
Hamfest. So this year to avoid that, we are having our May sprint the week 
before Dayton as we hope to continue our long run of 100+ logs sprints to show 
the ham radio world CW is alive and well - and actually growing. That means our 
May sprint will be on a second Wednesday instead of a third Wednesday.

Our May sprint is this coming Wednesday evening local time (May 8, EDT - 
8:30-10:30PM, CDT - 7:30-9:30PM, MDT - 6:30-8:30PM, PDT - 5:30-7:30PM), which 
translates as Thursday May 9, 0030Z to 0230Z in all cases.

I will refer you to the proper URL:

There you will find all the details as to time, frequencies and other important 
information.

Certificates: SWA (simple wire antennas) certificates by call area, VE and DX 
for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place finishers (New!).  A Certificate for top score in 
the GAIN antenna category.

Prizes:  Too many to list!! - check out the prize page on our website.

This is a monthly event that caters to the CW veteran, the CW newcomer, 
straight key and bug fans.  All are welcome to participate (this includes QRO); 
but you must use QRP power levels to compete for awards.

If you've been hesitant to join in our sprints because you hear other sprints 
running at breakneck speeds, have no fear. Our sprints are geared to the 
newcomer to CW and/or contesting. Virtually everyone including the many veteran 
contesters who regularly enter our sprints will slow down to YOUR speed to help 
you make your contacts.
