Greetings Diddlers!
Looks like the big ticket this weekend is the CW NAQP, but we don't want you
forgetting how to do RTTY, do we? And there is some RTTY activity this
weekend for the devoted adherent so let's not let the RTTY electrons get
rusty (or whatever unused electrons do...).
Please join us this Thursday evening (in NA of course, please check day and
time in your local area) for some Sprinting using the diddle mode. Yes, we
are still using the Dupe rule (work the same station again after an
intervening Q), but if you'd like to invite a few new stations to join us
we might be able to change that. High band conditions do appear to be less
than optimal but we'll have to use the hand we are dealt.
A new station welcome to KB3IPY and K5IX (who both posted to 3830 but I did
not work). Welcome to David and David (gee that was easy) and we all hope to
see you in future NSs. Also a big welcome to Jeff, WK6I, who for RTTY folks
needs no introduction. Some of us thought someone might be borrowing Jeff's
call for the evening but it turns out it really was the man himself. Welcome
and we hope you are able to make more of our Thursday get togethers.
And the details:
Friday, 31 July 2015, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday 30 July 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
