> Hi RTTY list viewers,
>
> The Northern California Contest Club is pleased to make the following
> webinar available for viewing.
>
> This is a webinar that concentrates on some practical aspects to get
> your station up and running for RTTY contests.  It is not intended to
> be an all-encompassing video about all details of RTTY and contesting.
>  It should hopefully be just enough to make you dangerous.  Most of
> you on this list do not need this webinar at all.  Perhaps this video
> would be helpful for your friends who are new to RTTY contesting, or
> for your local club that might be interested to participate next month
> in CQWW WPX RTTY or as a team entry in NAQP RTTY.
>
> RTTY Contesting for Newbies

> This file size is 115MB.  The recording is in .WMV format.  This
> should make it easy to view, as most of you already have a .WMV player
> on your computer (i.e. Windows Media Player).  The file should
> automatically start to play while still downloading.  In Windows Media
> Player, the dark blue line at the bottom (barely visible) indicates
> the download status.  The light blue line indicates what part of the
> recording you're currently viewing.  After the file has finished
> downloading (dark blue line scrolled all the way to the right and then
> disappeared), if you want to save it on your computer for future
> viewing, just go to the top of the Windows Media Player window, right
> click, select File, Save As, and type a filename with a .WMV extension
> (such as rtty.wmv).
