Greetings Diddlers,
A really great turnout last week, with 13 stations reporting and a couple that I know I worked that did not report. Relative newcomers WQ5C and AA7V were back for more, and a full complement of regulars. Great showing guys!
This upcoming weekend has the BARTG RTTY Sprint, which although is not a Sprint the way WE know Sprints it should still be a good time. And of course February has the CQWW RTTY WPX and NAQP RTTY, so let’s keep everything in tune to be ready for an active February. Let’s also hope ol’ Sol comes back to life and gives us a better propagation playground.
Please join us Thursday evening and get those keyboards limbered up.
