The suggested starting point for participants is from 3.555 MHz to 3.565
MHz and there abouts.  Please be considerate of non-contesting FISTS
members who congregate around 3.558 MHz !!!

Those who wish to initiate calls, please use "CQ NA".

The exchange is RST - SPC - NAQCC Member Nr.  (for those who wish to
participate that are not NAQCC members, simply substitute the member

are sending a power output figure!

A bonus is awarded as follows:

If you use only a straight key for the entire sprint, multiply your
