[NLRS] [BC'ers] Yes, Fall Sprints DO Start Sept. 19th BUT...

[Todd Sprinkmann]

   Hi John,

   Thank you *very* much for pointing out my mistake.  
   Goodness, they even put it in bold print.   

   Now I can go back and re-email everyone I've led down 
the wrong path.   :(   

   Get on for the sprints, and make the bands come alive.   
Don't worry about distance scoring except with the uWave 
sprint that isn't until Oct 22nd.  

    73,
    Todd  KC9BQA   


    PS:  John, while I have you here, I do have another 
question...  A reader at my website is wondering why there 
is no mention of power limits at the rules link for those Fall 
Sprints.  Is that an intentional omission (meaning power levels 
are irrelevant) or just what?   If you don't know, no problem.  
    Thanks again.
