==================
Following on the big success of last week's no same-band dupes test for 
NS Ladder we're holding a second identical session this Thursday night, 
0230-0300Z (Friday UTC). 20, 40 and 80m. CW on the following frequencies:

20 m      14030-14045 (avoid W1AW at 14047.5)
40 m      7030-7045 (avoid W1AW at 7047.5 and PSK at 7038)
80 m      3530-3545

Re WPX practice: NS is a great opportunity for WPX participants to check 
their equipment under vigorous conditions. Familiarize yourself with the 
NCCC Sprint rules at www.ncccsprint.com <http://www.ncccsprint.com/>
and join us for 30 mins of fun, hectic contesting using a modified 
sprint format. Then post scores to www.hornucopia.com 
<http://www.hornucopia.com/>  .

Same format as the usual ladder, see 
http://www.ncccsprint.com/ladder.htm   For this week only, no dupes are 
allowed on the same band.  All other rules the same. See 
http://www.ncccsprint.com/rules.htm  .

Note: The scores for this week's NS will not be included in the NS 
Ladder compilation.  The regular NS Ladder, with dupes allowed, resumes 
on June 5 UTC.

Not up to the 30+ wpm speeds of the NS Ladder?  Mike, W9RE runs the 
"Slow NS", SNS 30 minutes earlier (0200-0215Z) same frequencies as NS.-
