Greetings Diddlers,
A smaller group last week, but welcome to W4BBT and K9DX who I think are
somewhat new to our group. For the newer participants, don't forget that this
NS has the famous (maybe infamous) "Dupe Rule", as noted below. It's a little
weird, but the stripped down version is you may work the same station again if
you work someone else in-between. So don't worry if you only hear 8 - 10
stations, keep that dial moving and grab whoever you find.
Well finally we RTTY people get a whole weekend to ourselves. CQ WW RTTY WPX
is one of the biggies, and perhaps the most fun. Lots of rate and lots of
mults. What more do you need? So fire up that diddle machine and join us
Thursday evening and make sure everything is ready for the big weekend.
The details of our little get together:
Friday, 11 Feb 2022, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday, 10 Feb 2022 in NA)
-- 1745 - 1815 PST
-- 2045 - 2115 EST
-- (others in-between those two)
-- 160: Try 1804, 1805, 1806 (Last two to five minutes seem to be popular…)
-- 80/40/20/15 +84 kHz up from the band edge
-- Same band dupes ok after 1 intervening Q.
-- 1 kHz QSY rule, otherwise standard Sprint rules
-- Mults per band.
