Comments:
| WB9LWO IL Rookie |
| I was originally a ham in 1969 and have used FT8, but I had never used RTTY. I noticed that the Rookie Roundup allows allows one to participate a single year as a rookie new to RTTY, which is a nice way to gain first exposure to the mode. It was also good to see the various clubs and non-rookies on the air being patient with those of us new to mode. Given the experience, it should help to re-read the RTTY section of ARRL's "Get on the Air with HF Digital", attempt even more QSOs, and maybe help out as a non-rookie next year. |

| This is another WQ6X remote Screw-around event from NX6T in Fallbrook. I wanted to do the right thing by being available to the Rookie RTTY OPs but found there were very few OPs in the entire 6-hour contest to be found. If y'all want US to play with you, then y'all need to show up FIRST; we don't want to just work each other, we showed up to work rookies. I ran remotely from NX6T in Fallbrook. T amke things simple, I ran STN-1's K3 at 50 watts full duty RTTY into a Stepp-IR for 20 and a 2-el shorty-40 on 40 meters. 15-meters was a complete no-show and in all honesty, 20 was HARDLY much better.
