[CQ-Contest] NS RTTY this Thursday

[Ken K6MR]

Greetings Diddlers:

That’s more like it: an even dozen reporting stations last week.  Welcome to new stations KG5U and AE0EE. Dale is just getting his feet wet.  Bill was giving it a go from TI7 but conditions were not too good.  Welcome and hope to see you printing again.

The upcoming weekend is the Real NAS RTTY!  So if you have not been following along with us in the past, here’s you chance for a bit of practice before the big one.  There is also the YB DX RTTY Test, so maybe some DX before the Sprint.

Please join us and get that diddle machine tuned up and ready.

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

Friday,  8 Mar 2019, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday, 7 Mar 2019 in NA)
-- 1745 - 1815 PST
