[NLRS] NLRS Teams?!

Fri Aug 2 12:51:11 EDT 2019

I've put the rules addressing teams below.  While W0ZF/R (+AE0EE) and
K0BBC/R have plans for the Buffalo Ridge, it looks like we would be a
Region 6 effort (primarily) and only contacts we make from within MN would
count toward the team score for the proposed Region 10 "Team UHF Da".

There are now two teams forming:
Team UHF Da (Region 10): N0HJZ/R + ?
Team Glacial Sideband (Region 6): K0BBC/R + W0ZF/R + ?

7. Team Competition: The purpose of Team Competition is to encourage
participation, particularly by amateurs new to contesting on the VHF+ bands.
7.1. Teams are composed of Single-Operator, Fixed; Multi-operator, Fixed
and / or Rover category participants operating within a single Contest
Region as defined below.
7.2. Teams are classified as Small (two to five members) or Large (six to
ten members).
7.3. Team members must be registered for a specific team prior to the start
of the contest.  Registration consists of a web upload or time-stamped
email - containing a list of all participant call signs and the team’s
declared Contest Region. Online Team Registration will be available from 10
days before the contest, until 1 hour after the contest begins, at
            http://contests.arrl.org/teamreg.php?eid=1
7.4. A participant may only be a member of one team.  If more than one
registration contains the same participant, the registration received last
will be used to determine team membership.
7.5. To be a qualified member of a team, the member must make one valid
contact with at least one other member of the same team. Rover members must
make at least one contact from within the team’s Contest Region.
7.6. The team score is the sum of scores from qualified members. Rover
contribution is limited to that portion of the Rover’s score achieved from
within the team’s region.
7.7. A team member's score may also be counted for a club total in the Club
Competition.

Region 6: ND, SD, MB, SK
Region 9: IL, IN
Region 10: MN, WI, IA
Region 11: ON, MI, OH, NNY, WNY, WPA

Regards,
   Bill
AE0EE
