To all RTTY ops:

 

Don’t forget to participate in this week's halfhour NS RTTY (Northern 
California Contest Club Sprint contest, RTTY mode) this Thursday evening local 
time(Friday 0145Z).  It’s a half hour of action packed RTTY fun and adventure.

 Last week, we had a good group of mostlyregulars in this contest.  Those 
whoparticipate every week get a very good sense of how HF propagation 
progressesfrom week to week, band by band – a real life science education!

 

For those of you using the N1MM+ logger, thecontest module to use is 
NSRTTYDUPE.  If you need a good set of functionkeys, let me know and I’ll be 
happy to share mine with you.

 

Remember to try 15 meters at the beginning ofthis Thursday night's contest -- 
it's been open at 0145Z!

 

Also, please submit your score to www.3830scores.comat the end of the contest.  
Reporting your score, whether it be modest orawesome, helps build enthusiasm 
for this contest.
