Greetings Diddlers!

Now that the contest season is in full bloom the weekends are starting to
fill up. Not one but TWO RTTY contests this upcoming weekend, with the ARRL
160 thrown in for good measure. Not going to be much time for sleep or
fixing things, so if you're not sure your RTTY setup is up to par here's a
pre-contest chance to check it out.

Please join us this Thursday evening (in NA) and warm up the RTTY electrons:

Friday, 4 Dec 2015, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday 3 Dec 2015 in NA)
-- 1745 - 1815 PDT
-- 2045 - 2115 EDT
-- (others in-between these two)
-- 160: 1805 and up (160 is sounding good!)
-- 80/40/20/15 +80kHz up from the band edge (high bands seem to be folding
up early)
-- Same band dupes ok after 1 intervening Q.
-- 1 kHz QSY rule, otherwise standard Sprint rules.
-- 100W power limit.

Please visit http://www.ncccsprint.com/rttyns.html for complete rules and
links to other info. If you find any problems with the web pages, please let
me know so we can get them fixed. 

Report scores to 3830scores.com, and join us at 0300Z on 3610 kHz for
comments and questions (and dinner menus).

Diddle diddle,

Ken K6MR
