[CQ-Contest] NS RTTY this Thursday, 14 Oct in NA

[Ken K6MR]

Greetings Diddlers,

Great group last week, way over the double digit turnout.  Welcome again to KK0U and WV4P who are figuring out this crazy thing we call Sprinting.  I know AA9L has been doing this for a while, but needs to fix some TVI.  And welcome to AC5XK who is just figuring it out. Don’t worry Don, all will become clear soon.



The upcoming weekend has the JARTS RTTY test, which is usually well attended.  Good attendance along with some added multipliers for call areas in certain countries makes for good mult counts.



So keep that diddle machine alive and well for the weekend by joining in Thursday evening for our little get together.
