Hi all,
 
Wonder if anyone else noted the number of RTTY regulars playing in the JA
contest over WAE weekend?
On the cluster, many of the regular RTTY'ers seemed to be playing SSB or CW
instead of RTTY.
 
I didn't see any sign of Romeo UP5P, but did accidentally hit the 17m band
selector button, and found UN7GCE on 17m RTTY, along with a couple of DL's.
 
Perhaps not too surprisingly, plenty of the usual JA's were not around on
RTTY.
 
Lastly, I too noticed plenty of "new" calls during this one. Oh boy, RTTY is
sure becoming popular these days, and ain't that great! There were quite a
few new G's (and M's) as well. A good proportion of them were using MMTTY
too.
 
LONG LIVE RTTY!
