Greetings Diddlers,

Good turnout last week with all the usual suspects and some great totals.  W0YK was the hot one of the night, which was a little weird since it seemed I couldn’t hear anyone!  Oh well.  Welcome to KA2K, who jumped in for the first time after getting everything set up.  Welcome Scott, we all hope to see  you printing again from that rare (at least here) NJ mult.



I don’t see anything RTTY other than a short SARL test which looks to be South Africa only.  So since you’ll have to spend the weekend on CW (WAE) why not drop by on Thursday evening and get your RTTY fix?



The details for our little get together:



Friday,  13 Aug 2021, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday, 12 Aug 2021 in NA)
