About The Mystery Sprints
You never know what to expect with the Mystery Sprints. The theme, the QSO exchange, special rules, and the scoring remain a mystery until the Mystery Sprint is announced. Not only that, many of the mystery sprints will involve a puzzle for you to solve as to when it takes place just to add to the mystery. This format allows for trying out a wide range of ideas. Some may work, some may fall flat. If anything, we should have some fun trying.
Since the Mystery Sprints are part of the SKCC activities you should be reminded that participants are to use a mechanical key approved by the rules of the Straight Key Century Club. These include straight keys, sideswipers (Cooties) and bugs. Exceptions are granted to those with physical disabilities that prevent the use of such keys. We would like to keep the Mystery Sprints informal and a fun activity for operators with different skill levels. Operating speed should be adjusted accordingly. Shortwave listeners are invited to participate. Finally, as with all SKCC sprints, WARC bands are not to be used.
THERE IS NO CURRENTLY ACTIVE SPRINT.
