[KCDXC] Weekend and more

[tombaugh]

Hi Guys,

I hope everyone that wanted to work AH3D got the chance to. He had a big
signal again this morning and was actually CQing for a short while with no
answer so I worked him again for the heck of it on one call.
I saw that Alex was spotted on a RTTY contest over the weekend.. way to go

I hope to get the 20M beam up some time this week now that the weather is
turning cold (best antenna always gets put up when it's cold).

I look forward to having the multi event out at the house this weekend.
CQ/RJ WW RTTY WPX Contest 0000Z, Feb 8 - 2400Z, Feb 9
We will be using only three radios and operating whatever bands are best at
the time.
We'll have a 4th radio if we get a big crowd.. we can add it to the mix as
well.
Marty will be coming out this week to confirm operation of the hardware and
software.
RTTY is a pretty casual contesting mode. If you have never seen or operated
RTTY before come out and take a look and/or operate. I think you'll see that
it can be a lot of fun.. not requiring too much concentration or strain in
trying to hear the "weak ones". They either print or they don't! Anyway.. I
have the following so far this weekend

KU1CW at KU1CW
AK0A at AK0A
NW0L, K0LW, W0ZAP, KI7WO, N0TT, K0VBU?, KG0US? at AE9B  (could sure use
more!)
anyone have time and can commit?

I have also updated the picture page of the ND trip (sorry for the long load
time before) this one loads a lot faster.
