[UK-CONTEST] 80m CC RTTY

[Phil Cooper]

Hi all,

As Jim noted, there were lots of instances of "not very good" operating
practices, and I too had a few that got deleted from the log, simply because
they called CQ straight away, rather than confirming the contact with a "73
TU QRZ?" type message.
I also found a few that were exceedingly slow to respond to a call, so I
called again, only to find them sending me a report.
I do appreciate that some are new to RTTY, but PLEASE do note down what you
have in the buffers, and be ready to send them!

It was also hard this far south!

As for running, I found that starting of with CQ was a waste, so I went to
S&P, and then returned to CQ'ing later in the contest. This proved to be
better for a short while, but soon got sparse.

I ended up with 45, although I actually worked more than that, it's just
that they didn't make it into the log!

73, and see all you RTTY types in the SPRVG at the weekend! (Rules and info
can be found a www.rttycontesting.com )
