Greetings Diddlers:
Great to work a number of diddlers in the original digital mode Sprint last
weekend. A wonderful tribute to Don, W4OC. Apparently many missed SC, which
Don often provided to all of us. RIP OM.
Our RTTY get together had just over double digit participation. 20 was a no
show, but 160 had some activity. So don’t forget to check both just in case
someone is around.
This weekend is the CQ WPX RTTY, so take some time to tune up the diddle
machine. Not only can you join us at our normal time on Thursday, there will
be two other practice sessions in normal WPX contest format. So check them all
out and make sure you are ready to make the weekend productive.
The details for our little get together this week:
