Greetings Diddlers,
A smallish group last week, but N3QE still managed a 40+ Q half hour. Welcome
to Ron, KF7ZN who I did not work but apparently made a few Qs. Welcome, and
hope to see you printing again. Just a quick reminder to everyone who jumps
in: 1 Q or 100, please post your score to 3830scores.com so we know who was
around. We always like to publicize our new stations and hope we can keep you
coming back for more.
The only keyboard mode contest I see for the weekend is the Russian WW Multi
Mode Contest, which does have a RTTY mode. Of course there is the RTTYOps
Weekend Sprint on Saturday, so a couple ways to exercise the diddles. Of
course if you are a real Sprint fanatic, don’t forget the SSB Sprint on
Saturday. Yes, it takes a microphone, but hey! It’s a Sprint!
So if you are stuck at home on Thursday evening, warm up the diddle machine and
give us a try. We’re the most friendly contest on the continent!

Friday, 30 Oct 2020, 0145Z - 0215Z (Thursday, 29 Oct in NA)
