[MRCG] Clatternet last night

Tim, Eric -

Really great to hear some real RTTY signals !!  Thanks for the fine QSO last night, and looking forward to more participants in the near future. The copy you show is pretty much what I typed – I’m not very accurate on that machine yet and there’s no backspace, lol.

Since I am unworthy to be a member of Clatternet with my Glass Terminal I will call my participation the MILRATT Net - LOL.  This 20 watt transmitter was apparently doing pretty well into SF and Santa Paula...

73, Tim
