[SOC] RFTB Sunday night

[Larry Makoski]

Faith and Begorra! 

I hope yourself will be wearin' a bit o' the green and will be joining the rest of us fine Piggies for the March edition of the RFTB, this Sunday night - St. Paddy's Day.

Me darlin' mother-in-law, who was born and bred in Donegal explained to me that the American custom of eating corned beef and cabbage came about because the original Irish immigrants to these fine shores couldn't afford the traditional St. Paddy's Day meal - ham.  

HAM?!?  Why we'd be cannibals, we Piggies would be!

So join us for that friendly lil' ol' QRP Sprint sponsored by your friends at the Flying Pigs QRP Amateur Radio Club International.  Join us for a spell to have some fun and to say "Hi" to friends, old and new.

The time is the same as always:

East coast - 9:00 to 11:00 PM local time
Midwest - 8:00 to 10:00 PM local time
Rockies - 7:00 to 9:00 PM local time
West coast - 6:00 to 8:00 PM local time

The rules are at:

And to all Flying Pig members, this is a great opportunity to work a bunch of your fellow piggies and then enter your contacts into the WAP log.

Keep in mind to keep checking 7.030.7 MHz for those who are operating crystal controlled Pig Rigs.

And mind you, if you can't be wearin' a bit o' the green, then maybe you join us with a green pint in hand.  Happy St. Patrick's Day to all!

Erin go Bragh
