[RTTY] No RTTY Forum at Dayton 2004

[WI8W]

Humm, so much for their new all volunteer effort.


Somebody at the Hamvention dropped the ball. Maybe they are looking a 
decreasing the crowd some more.

being relatively new to RTTY I was looking forward to the Forum this year.

Now I don't know if th RTTY bunch is big enough to support it  but what 
we do (QRPARCI - www.qrparci.org) for the QRP crowd is that we 
commandeer the whole hotel we stay in beginning on Thursday and have all 
day seminars at the hotel dealing with just about every subject related 
to QRP.  That is if we can get enough presenters. We generally run from 
8am to 4pm with a hour break around noon. We have done this for several 
years now and have never had any problem getting speakers.

Maybe this is a option, provided someone get the RTTY group a hotel to 
commandeer.  Imagine having a all day seminar session just for RTTY.
