[RTTY] Setting up for NAQP RTTY Sprint

[Robert Chudek - K0RC]

I am setting up N1MM for the NAQP 4-hour RTTY sprint and will pass along a few tips:

1) Choose the contest title "SPRINTRTTY" and not "NAQPRTTY" when setting up your log (in N1MM).

2) The rules state you must exchange "His call + serial number + your name + your state + your call" These 5 elements can be in any order.

3) You can rework stations as long as there are 3 qso's in EACH log since your last exchange. For example, you can work KØRC as contacts 1, 4, 8, 12, etc.

4) Consider setting up a macro like this: "{TX}{ENTER} {HISCALL} SRI TOO SOON {MYCALL} CQ {SCQ}{RX}"  You can send this when a station returns for another contact too soon.

5) The contest starts Saturday evening (6:00 PM CDT) and uses 80, 40, and 20 meters only.
