Larry,

You have the right idea.  We do need more participation, especially in this
contest.  I kind of don't like the idea that we can work other stations more than
once on the same band, but there isn't enough participation in this one to make
it interesting otherwise.

Unfortunately, I have a birthday dinner to attend Saturday night.  I doubt I'll
be able to participate.

This is an excellent time to check out your station before BARTG next weekend.
It's actually been a couple of weeks since we had a RTTY contest so it might
not be a bad idea to blow the cobwebs off the radio.

73, Don AA5AU

[RTTY] Dayton 2002I'll do anything I can to encourage increased participation in the RTTY sprint. My philosophy is you got to start
somewhere and this is one little growlers attempt.  And, if you've ever seen my RTTY sprint scores you know I am a very little
growler.

  Why bother?  Participation is so low that the last hour consists of working the same people every 3 Q's.



  Top of section in last one, Golden log, but nothing to show for it.



  I'll be in NM for this one, but you'd better hope that K5AM is active as you won't get me for your mult.
