[PPRAANet] NAQP RTTY Score

[Steve **KT0DX**]

Nice score and sorry we missed one another as I could have used the 
point.  I think you will have a lot of
fun as you become more involved in RTTY contesting.  I just wish there 
was more activity on RTTY when
Field Day comes along.  I for one will be on RTTY as much as I can this 
upcoming Field Day.
