I am now offering my master RTTY callsign database file in ASCII form. The file comes in zipped form and is called mstrtty.zip. It can be downloaded off my RTTY page at http://www.aa5au.com/rtty. Unz
Nice info Bill. Thanks for sharing it. I just received my 3rd TS-870S today. Although I don't do much CW contesting with it, it takes the cake (and a few plaques as well) on RTTY. I just wanted to le
I agree with both Tyler & Barry on this one. It would be better to move the NA Sprint up to the XE RTTY weekend. There is not a whole of activity in XE RTTY even though I did make nearly 800 Q's this
Catch me napping? You didn't catch me napping. You went out and beat the crap out of me when I was on top of my game. It was a superior effort by Ty who had not been active in the last couple of year
The rules look good to me except the band change limits. I'm curious why all the interest in limiting band changes for single ops? This doesn't seem like a good idea. Instead of discouraging SO2R wit
Attention RTTY Contesters: Working with Wayne, K7WM, the contest manager for NAQP RTTY, I've come up with a survey on my website asking RTTY contesters to express their opinion on whether or not 160M
RTTY rates will never be higher than CW or SSB overall. The point is moot. However, depending on the individual, RTTY rates can be higher than in the other modes consistently. For instance, my RTTY r
Good idea because PSK contesting, IMO, is not fun at all (yet). Having entered a good share of PSK contests, I can tell you that PSK31 is an excellent conversational mode, but having nearly 20 years
Interesting results http://www.aa5au.com/naqp_160surveyresults.html. Thanks for participating in the survey. 73, Don AA5AU Hallo! I will be with my family one week (18.8. - 24.8.) near Oakham (nr Lei
Excellent group of programs. Not only do you get the Log Checker, you also get a Cabrillo converter that converts just about any kind of log to Cabrillo and a Master Call database maintenance program
Dennis Younker NE6I brings up a valid question. Two years ago, almost to this week, my house (not the antennas) were struck my lightning and it took out an IC751A and TS870. I purchased another TS870
Thanks Fab, I've been using DXTelnet several years with WriteLog. For RTTY contesting, all you have to do is put into the filter the word "RTTY" and only RTTY spots will be sent to WriteLog during th

I just wanted to remind everyone that the JARTS (Japanese Amateur Radio Teleprinter Society) World-Wide RTTY Contest is being held on October 19 &20. This will be the 11th annual JARTS contest. This
Is there a reason RTTY is not included? I guess we do keep our own records on http://www.rttyjournal.com/contests/index.htm but it would be nice to be recognized along with the other modes. 73, Don A

I've received E-mail from many who believe there should have been a comment section in the new RTTY Contesting survey. Although I thought about it, I did not include a comment section because I wasn'

It's my opinion that PSK is a waste of time in the Roundup. I would guess that 95-98% of the action is on RTTY. That's why it's the RTTY Roundup and not the Digital Roundup I guess. 73, Don AA5AU htt
Like Ed, I use a single strip of paper with labels. Instead of using PowerPoint, I use Excel. You can download keyboard templates in either Excel for Microsoft Works from the rttycontesting.com Downl
