[GreenKeys] Greenkeys Night

[david freeman]

I'm favorable to either idea.
There seems to be some interest in RTTY contests.
And that would be a way to get the iron involved.
A straight key night is more of a rag chew, which is fine as well.
Do these things just grow from a "couple of guys"

I am thinking of trying to set up a RTTY art roundtable again this winter.
Maybe one evening every other week.
