Greetings Diddlers:

Hope everyone had a fun and restful 4th, but it’s time to get back to the ether.

Almost a dozen stations reported last week, so things are getting back to normal. The upcoming weekend looks to be cw/phone centric with the IARU HF Test on tap, but the following weekend is NAQP RTTY.  Time to start planning for a full day of digital fun, which should include joining us Thursday evening and giving your digital station a checkout!

Here are the details for our usual Thursday evening session:
Friday,  7 July 2017, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday, 6 July 2017 in NA)
-- 1845 - 1915 PDT
-- 2145 - 2215 EDT
-- (others in-between those two)
-- 160: 1805 and up (Not sure this will be productive)
-- 80/40/20/15/10 +80kHz up from the band edge  (start checking those higher bands!)
-- Same band dupes ok after 1 intervening Q.
-- 1 kHz QSY rule, otherwise standard Sprint rules
-- Mults per band
-- 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 (+/- a few for ongoing groups) for comments and questions (and dinner menus).

Diddle diddle,

Ken K6MR
