Greetings Diddlers,
A smallish group last week, but everyone kept busy. Just a reminder: Not
everyone is loud to someone else, so be sure to listen for the TU or RRR before
calling so folks can get a repeat if needed. I know we all want speed, but
let’s make sure everyone completes all of their Qs. So pause just a bit more
and listen before calling.
Welcome to Don, AK2S, who completed his first sprint! Yes, at times confusing.
But always a rush!
After a few weekends of non-stop RTTY, the upcoming weekend looks like
everything but RTTY. So let’s keep your diddle machine up to snuff by a bit of
sprinting this Thursday. Then it can take the weekend off.
The details of our little get together:
Friday, 22 Oct 2021, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday, 21 Oct 2021 in NA)
-- 1845 - 1915 PDT
