NS Rules
Note
These are the "nominal" NS rules and may be modified on a weekly basis. Refer
to the Next NS web page for details on any modifications for a given week.
23-Oct 0230-0300 NS CQ WW SSB starts 00Z 20,40,80,160 no same-band
dupes
Time
* 0230-0300 UTC Fridays (Thursday evening NA time, DST ignored).
Note: NS begins at exactly 0230. A participant may not respond to a CQ
or it's equivalent more than 30.00 minutes later -- 0300. In other words, if
the soliciting station receives and sends the call sign of the responding
station before 30.00 minutes after the start, then the QSO can be completed and
counted. Otherwise, not.
Frequencies (kHz)
* 1810-1820 (when used in NS)
* 14030-14045 (avoid W1AW at 14047.5)
* 7030-7045 (avoid W1AW at 7047.5 and PSK at 7038)
* 3530-3545
Exchange
* Serial number
* Name
* QTH (US state, Canadian Province or DX country)
Rules
NCJ NA CW Sprint rules with the following modifications:
* Rules modified to NAQP rules:
o NAQP multipliers, i.e., KH6 is an additional multiplier
o Multipliers count once per band
o 100 watts or less power
o Scoring is total QSOs times sum of multipliers on each band
* 1kHz QSY rule for both calling and answering CQs
* 30-minute contest period (see Time above)
* Use of Skimmer or Packet not permitted
Reporting
* Post to the 3830 reflector via the 3830 submittal web page for the NS
Ladder Competition within 48 hours after the NS. Direct posting to N6ZFO is
also acceptable.
Guidelines
* Reduce CW speed for slower stations
Software
* Use either the NA CW Sprint or Internet Sprint module of your favorite
logging program.
* If your logging software cannot add band-multipliers to the score
computation, then some manual post-contest work will be necessary to get the
total score or use the NS Score Calculator which operates off a Cabrillo file.
* N1MM Logger, TR-Log, Win-Test and WriteLog handle NS completely,
including proper score computation. Details are available on the NS Software
web page, along with specific information on other popular contest loggers. If
you can enhance this information, please contact W0YK.
