New Time for this week.  0300z to 0325z+

 

Dupes ok with one intervening QSO.

 

Announcing the NCCC's (Northern California Contest Club) weekly Thursday
night running of the SNS.

 

Please keep your speed to between 18 to 26  WPM.  Suggest using 18WPM for
the first 10 minutes then increase as you see fit. 

 

The Slow Speed NS practice is from 0300z to 0325z+ (Friday UTC, Thursday
local time).  That's starting at 10:00pm EST, 9:00pm CST, 8:00pm MST and
7:00pm PST, local time Thursday .

 

Frequencies:
20 m      14037-14043 
40 m      7040-7047 
80 m      3537-3543


POWER: 100 watt limit.

 

If you don't hear a CQ, send a CQ and don't worry about the couplet since
this is only practice and hopefully an introduction to sprints for newbies.
I think stations might answer a CQ more likely than call CQ themselves.
With that said remember that newbies are listening to get up the nerve to
jump in so don't hesitate to make Q's.  Also since this is only a practice
you can go past the 15 minute time suggestion.

 

NS 0330z to 0400z (See N6RO's announcement).
