Fellow RTTY aficionados:

 This week's half hour NS RTTY (NCCC Sprintcontest, RTTY mode) is coming up 
this Thursday evening local time (Friday0145Z).  It’s a half hour of action 
packed RTTY fun.

 For those of you who will be in Dayton thisThursday, here’s your chance to 
checkout your ability to operate your station remotely.  According to the fine 
article by W1VE in theMay/June 2022 edition of the NCJ, remote operation is 
easy peasy.

 Last week, we had a good group of mostlyregulars in this event.  Those 
whoparticipate every week get a very good sense of how HF propagation 
progressesfrom week to week.

 

A few entrants last week forgot to submit theirscores to www.3830scores.com at 
the end of the contest.  Please dothat.  Reporting your score, whether itbe 
modest or awesome, helps build enthusiasm for this event, and 
increasesparticipation for future editions.

 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 – 15 
is often open at 0145Z.

 

 

The details of the next NS RTTY:

 

Friday,  20 May 2022 UTC, 0145Z to 0215Z(Thursday, 19 May 2022 in North America)
