Greetings Diddlers!
Hope everyone's voice has recovered from the weekend. Considering the poor
conditions you probably didn't get a serious workout anyway! There was some
activity on Sunday in the RTTY Rookie Roundup even with the poor conditions,
so there are some new RTTY contesters being grown. This weekend looks pretty
thin, but Hawaii and Ohio seem to have the bands to themselves for their QSO
parties. Solar numbers look pretty dismal right now so I hope something
changes real soon.
If you'd like some RTTY practice this week, please join us on Thursday
evening (NA time). Pretty good turnout last week, and a big welcome to
WA0LJM who brought a new multiplier to some lucky participants! Looks like
K7SV hasn't lost his touch for the diddle mode!
And the details:
Friday, 21 Aug 2015, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday 20 Aug 2015 in NA)
-- 1845 - 1915 PDT
-- 2145 - 2215 EDT
-- (others in-between these two)
-- 160: 1805 and up (but probably only if you have a local)
-- 80/40/20/15 +80kHz up from the band edge
-- 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
