[RTTY] RTTY Roundup Practice Thu and Fri

[Don Hill AA5AU]

Looks like I spoke too soon in my last post.

I think I used "CQ CQ NCCC" last time.  But this time I'm going to go ahead and
use my regularly scheduled buffers.  So I'm going to use "CQ CQ RU".

Come on everyone, get involved in practice tonight and tomorrow night if
possible.  CU THERE!!!

73, Don AA5AU

The Northern California Contest Club regularly organizes contest practice
sessions for other contests.  These are good opportunities to debug many setup
issues before the real contest.

These practice sessions are useful to:
*Test your antennas to make sure they have survived the winter so far *Test RTTY
interface and tweak sound card levels *Verify your TX polarity is correct and
your TX signal is free from RFI *Test logging software, function key macros,
MMTTY setup (do you really want AFC or NET enabled?) *Test SO2R setup *Practice
moving stations to other bands for QSOs
