Comments:
My very first RTTY contest. I had just gotten CocoaModem interfaced
last week and am very impressed with its abilities. Heard the VOLTA
contest on the air earlier in the day and finally got to try it out
later in the early evening. It was difficult because CocoaModem
doesn't explicitly have support for this contest. I ended up using
the generic QSO number interface, but then I had to patch in the zone
for each QSO in the log window. Tedious, but workable.
I have no idea what my score was, but was happy to hand out a few
contacts.
