Greetings Diddlers:

Just into double digits last week, and a lively group to boot.  Welcome to first timer (I think) AG6AG, who I somehow did not manage to work.  Welcome Stuart and hope to catch you next time.

This weekend brings us the EA RTTY test for your keyboarding pleasure.  Looks like plenty of activity based on last year’s results so there’s your excuse to fire up the diddle machine this Thursday evening and make sure everything is ship shape.

Here are the details for our usual Thursday evening (in NA)  get together.

Friday,  5 Apr 2019, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday, 4 Apr 2019 in NA)
-- 1845 - 1915 PDT
-- 2145 - 2215 EDT
-- (others in-between those two)
-- 160: 1805 and up (Last two minutes seem to be popular…)
-- 80/40/20/15 +80kHz up from the band edge
-- Same band dupes ok after 1 intervening Q.
