Please try to get On The Air for this Sprint to make some contacts/QSOs, see how far you can communicate, and submit your Sprint log to show that YOU have been using the very valuable 70 Cm Amateur Radio Band.
 
I plan to be active for the first 2 hours of the Sprint from a local hilltop and will switch back and forth from 432.1 MHz +/- USB/CW  to 446.0 MHz FM Simplex.
