[RTTY] North American QSO Party, RTTY, this Saturday July 16

[Ken K6MR]

There were not many on tonight. Usually the practice sessions are better attended.


I'm at the other end of the state but it should not have been a problem working you. I called cq on 40 for 10 minutes and only worked 2 stations. 






Hopefully everyone just took the evening off.

Well I gave it a try and could hear a few on 20 but too weak to decode. 40
didn't hear anyone. Hope tomorrow will be better.
