This Saturday July 20th will feature the North American QSO Party on RTTY.
It's fun and friendly, with an exchange of Name and State (or Province/Country).
Rules, Team Registration, Logging Guidance and more at the webpage of the 
National Contest Journal   <http://ncjweb.com/contests.php>

After the contest, please check your Cabrillo file for the proper categories, as some 
program defaults may not be correct for you in the NAQP.  The NAQP contests are 
designed for participants to be either:
 a. Single-op, Non-Assisted, and Low power; or 
 b. Multi-Operator Two-Transmitter, Assisted, and Low power.

You can upload your log on the NCJ's "Upload Logs" page, which also does some 
preliminary checks to help you get full credit for your efforts.

If you'd like some practice in advance, there is a RTTY Sprint Practice on Thursday 
nights (Friday morning UTC) as announced by N6RO at:
<http://lists.contesting.com/archives//html/CQ-Contest/2013-07/msg00118.html>

You may find some participants in the DMC RTTY contest, and they'll want a 
serial number, starting 001 (Example: 599 001).  Be sure to get a Name for your 
NAQP log. 

See you on RTTY, Saturday July 20th!
