[CQ-Contest] Re: [RTTY] CW/RTTY QRM Saturday evening

[Michael Furfari]

I think this is the once in 6 or 7 year event when the RTTY Roundup bounces 
to the second weekend to not interfere with New Years Day.  I agree that 40 
is gonna be a zoo and I love the NAQP CW contest too so it's a shame I have 
to miss out on it this time.
