Greetings Diddlers,
Very nice turnout before the RU last week. In addition to many of our regulars
we had W4VS testing out WW4LL for the weekend, AA7V making sure all was well,
and K6XT using NX0U. Welcome all and don’t be bashful for the rest of the year.
The only actual RTTY activity I see this upcoming weekend is the RSGB AFS
Contest, which looks to be Euro-centric judging by the times/bands and
something about “affiliates”. The RTTYOps Weekend Sprint seems to have fallen
off the list so looks like no official RTTY stuff.
The NAQP CW will be around this weekend to capture a bit of your interest on
the ‘other’ mode, but please join us Thursday evening and keep the diddle ether
alive and well.
The details for our little get together this week:
