Greetings Diddlers:
Another double digit turnout last week. 20 meters hung in there for quite a
while, and even a few 15 meter Qs The longer days are helping even with the
blank sun.
If you are into gigantic point scores, this weekend has the granddaddy of them
all: the Volta RTTY. An interesting score formula makes 1M scores easy. A
little effort and you too can join the 100M club!

free weekend..
