Paul:
This weekend I dabbled for about 4 hours (total) in the North American RTTY QSO
Party using a Yaesu FT-817 with 5W output to a random-wire antenna in the back
yard. With a very casual effort I netted 40 contacts, which included Lithuania
and Hungary.

Subject: [RTTY] Power
Hi Guys,
Being new to rtty I have a question about power, my rig will only put
out about 30w on a full duty cycle, will this be enough. I
have been copying some of you over the past week and a lot of people
seem to run high power. What are my chances of working DX with 30w and a
dipole antenna.
