[CQ-Contest] [RttyDigital] FT RoundUp

[Jim Brown]

It should be noted that Ed, a top RTTY contester and major force behind 
integrating FT modes into contesting, owns and operates a winery and is 
donating the wines. I live close enough to him to know him as a friend 
and buy them by the case every year or so. Another top RTTY contester 
and winery owner, WK6I, donates wine for CQP winners.

73, Jim K9YC
