What a great weekend! Great friends, great conditions and we introduced three folks to the world of RTTY contesting. We had a pair of delightful young ladies join us. Sally G2YL who is residing in Northern Virginia put a lot of Qs in the log and provided great diversity to the usual contest weekend banter. While, Steve's NR4Ms daughter, Jennifer, has grown accustomed to all the contest 'strangeness' over the years, this weekend she actually participated in it, making a number of contacts on 20 meters.

NR4M (team 'Goat'), was the winner of the 2011 CQWW RTTY DX contest in the 'Multi-operator, Two transmitter' class, for North America. It really is an attractive award.
This was a new North American record of 6,363,236 points.

Rules make it not as much fun for a multi-op. Off for about 2 hours because of electrical storms in area. Had the pleasure of having Sandy, YO3ND, operate with us, while visiting N2YO. Had plenty of time BS, and we did.

Well, guys, we did it! We broke the existing North American record for the WPX RTTY contest in the multi-multi class, with a score of over 14 million points! Not too shabby at all, and a job well done! Between the personal ‘chit-chats’ I’ve had and what I heard mentioned at the last meeting, there seems to be a lot of enthusiasm for more RTTY participation from ‘the Farm’.
