Hey Mother Lode'ers,

The RTTY Roundup is the first weekend in January.  I hope to see a good showing from our group to support NCCC.

A couple of years ago, I arranged a conference call with several in our club for a real-time, on-air RTTY tutorial, led by Ed, W0YK.  If anyone is interested in doing something like this again, let me know.  I'm sure we can get WK6I, W0YK, or N6WM to assist.

For those who have not operated RTTY, once you try it, you're hooked!  If you're not doing SO2R, you can even hold a conversation with your spouse, watch a football game, or whatever while maintaining a decent rate!  SO2R, however, is a rush with RTTY and fairly easy to do.  I can try to arrange the time to assist some of you if interested.

We still have a handful of big stations in the group who have yet to try this mode out.  Contact me, guys, if you need assistance.  I can try to make a personal appearance at your station.

Bob
