[NLRS] Two-Meter Classic Sprint (or is it a DASH?)

How about fewer rules and everyone just get on the air at a certain time?
Start on 144.200 SSB and go from there?  Try different bands or modes?
Somebody pick a day & time and let's see what happens.  I'm a real noob with
this VHF stuff, but some of the "rules" of this Classic Sprint make no sense
to me at all.

Evening for sure, not a morning person! I can hear the WD9BGA/b beacon ~90%
of the time and I am 60 miles from the SD border in SW Minnesota! Chicago to
the Twin Cities is very doable with any kind of semi decent band conditions.

Hi Rich,

If NLRS were to set one up for Sunday evenings, I'd consider participating
but it's a LONG way from Chicagoland to the Twin Cities (but I have worked
W0VTT on 2m from the CoROVERolla). An hour period (still more like a dash
than a sprint) with no time restriction on Rover movement would definitely
be something that I'd support!

NLRS could make their own rules. (Maybe state that NO QSOs are allowed
between 144.195 and 144.205 so folks HAVE to move their VFOs from 144.200?)
With one QSO per station, crossmode could be okay, too. (And maybe allow
EXTRA points for making SSB or CW QSOs on 144.174 ; - ).

73, JK
