[NLRS] 144 MHz Sprint is Monday Night, April 9th

[Todd Sprinkmann]

Want to remind everyone the Spring V/UHF Sprints start
with the 2m sprint next Monday, from 7-11pm local time.

    I'll be on the air next Monday.  Who else has plans to get on?
Any rovers going to be out?  We could sure use them.


     If you want more sprint info, read on.  This info has been
posted at kc9bqa.com for two weeks now.  Hope you're
helping to spread the word among your VHF buddies.

    Sponsor K9JK would like everyone to visit the Sprints
