[GreenKeys] Greenkeys in the January 2018 RTTY Roundup

[Jeff Stai]

It's great that this new contest is getting people into the TX side!

In my capacity as the guy that writes the contest article for QST, I would
love to stay a fly on the wall for any discussions on this topic, to share
your experiences as appropriate in the article.

If you are not going to carry on here (but I hope you do), please let me
know where you do end up so I can participate, and maybe even help.

But I suspect if there are two of you already interested, plenty of others
are as well.

Thanks! jeff wk6i
