Greetings Diddlers!

Hope everyone had a great time last weekend in the NAQP.  The upcoming weekend looks like a big CW DX weekend, at least for those of you who can work Europe easily. 

Of course we always want to keep your RTTY skills on the up and up, so please join us this Thursday evening (in NA of course, please check day and time in your local area) for some Sprinting using the diddle mode. Yes, we are still using the Dupe rule (work the same station again after an intervening  Q), but if you'd like to invite a few new stations to join us we might be able to change that. 

We had a number of new stations last week. A big NS welcome to WB8BZK, WQ5L (a cw NSer), WU5E, and K5IX was back for more!  Welcome all and I hope we can keep you engaged in the art and science of RTTY Sprinting. 
  
And the details:
Friday, 7 Aug 2015, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday 6 Aug 2015 in NA)
-- 1845 - 1915 PDT
-- 2145 - 2215 EDT
-- (others in-between these two)
-- 160: 1805 and up (but probably only if you have a local)
-- 80/40/20/15 +80kHz up from the band edge
-- Same band dupes ok after 1 intervening Q.
-- 1 kHz QSY rule, otherwise standard Sprint rules.
-- 100W power limit.

Please visit http://www.ncccsprint.com/rttyns.html for complete rules and links to other info. If you find any problems with the web pages, please let me know so we can get them fixed. 
 
Report scores to 3830scores.com, and join us at 0300Z on 3610 kHz for comments and questions (and dinner menus).

Diddle diddle,
 
 Ken K6MR
