Papakura Radio Club who have organised the Waitakere Sprint for the past three years are adding the following Sprint Contests to the Contest Calendar. November will be the Papakura Sprint, February the Summer Sprint and in May the Tasman Sprint series so the calendar will look like this.

Operators are to record as many contacts as possible from within the total group of participating stations.
Each sprint is just one hour duration 9.00 - 10.00 UTC
One category no weighting or juggling the high score wins.
Certificates issued to top 6 places.
The results will also be sorted into callsign prefix areas of operating for area comparison showing highest VK1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and ZL1,2,3,4 etc.
Full rules will be provided for each Sprint and be added to the Papakura Radio Clubs web site search 'ZL1VK'.
