[Elecraft] NJQRP Sprint

[Rod N0RC]

Folks,

This is one of my most favorite events, I can't wait for Sunday! Rules
can be found at http://www.njqrp.org/data/qrphomebrewersprint.html

Unless the sun "burps" I think solar conditions should be excellent.
Even more interesting is the fact that we will be very near the Spring
Equinox. During the contest hours the greyline will be almost exactly
north and south, and sweeping across the continental US see
http://www.worldtimezone.com/datetime.htm. Band conditions should be
interesting.

I had hoped to operate /P from Wyoming during this contest. That is
now looking a little "iffy". Today I checked long range weather
forecasts and webcams up in WY--I think I'm rushing the TTF season!
;-) If I can get up there I will do 4 hours of CW with my K1 on
15/20/40 as conditions allow. Listen for my call, if I send N0RC/7,
I'm in WY. My goal will be to hand out as many WY QSOs (and QSL cards)
as possible.

If I don't get up to WY I'll likely work the first hour or so with
PSK-31 on 20, (hopefully with a newly assembled psk-20). Then finish
up with CW on whatever bands are active. My goal here will be to hand
out as many 5 point QSOs as possible on PSK.

In either case I'll be running a full 5W so that I can be heard to
overcome as best as possible my compromise antenna situation.

Hope to see you in my contest log!
